    Cloned out some telephone wires in the BG. Wishing for a little better HA on this one... Any comments appreciated.

    Hi Allen, banking angles always produces lovely wingspans, as you have here, and love the detail and colours of the Spoonie. I quite like how he is framed between the OOF palm trees, as its better than a clear sky BG. I agree, a better HA wouldnt have harmed the image.

    Nice Allen. The exposure, composition and sharpness are all excellent. And the vegetation does help to frame the bird.

    Yes, a bit better HA would have been ideal, but I love the banking pose and the palm leaves at left.

    Nice banking pose and the OOF leaves add to the composition.
