    Another super frame Alan, I think the Kiskadee could be sharpened at tad more.
    The comp is perfect.....

    Superb action shot Alan. I may be tempted to bright the eye of the Kiskadee just a bit to give a bit more eye catch.

    I received your newslatter today in the email and lots of superb photos there.

    Killer action captured here, and in great light to boot. Love that both sets of wings are out and all talons visible.

    What an image! The action is over the top here. Love the eyes and the talons of the thrush. Well done, Master.
