    Alan: very well captured image. Pose is perfect for this composition. And of course it doesn't hurt to have a subject with such a distinctive profile.

    Cheers

    Amazing capture! What a background! Well done! If only there could be just a little more separation/definition between the top of the kite's head and the background. One of a kind image! TFS!

    Hi Alan, we all look for these type of images, birds flying past either a rising or setting sun, the moon, but here you grabbed the whole rainbow. Well seen and captured. I do like the pastel colours of the rainbow.
