    Perfect timing! I love the feet and intense stare. Very nice hint of clouds, and great detail in the whites.

    Terrific landing pose. Well exposed. And nice gnarly perch.

    I like the gnarly post and the extended neck coming in for the landing. Whites look good to me. I also like the clouds in the sky. Wish the shot was a bit closer to eye level. The wing position is not ideal for me. It would be better if it were fully extended and also if it did not have such a harsh shadow due to the position.
