    Hi Joe,
    Lots to like her. Good sharpness, good wing position ( although all the way down is my favorite!).
    I wonder if this was slightly underexposed as I see a bit of noise in the underwing. Did you have to bring up the exposure in PP?
    I would deal with the noise.
    I also see a green cast under the chin and tail which is easily fixed in PP.
    I like the visible veins in the webbing of the feet.
    Gail

    Hi Joe wish my eyes were the same standard as Gail's,noise and green cast elude these old eyes of mine, never got a decent flight shot myself so I would be very pleased with this fine shot.
