Hi everyone, This was taken a couple of weeks ago to be honest was going to post it in Avian forum but when I really took a hard look at it and the meta data ect. I think there's a lot of mistakes were made while shooting.
Some mistakes I think I made are, Spot metering for one, low shutter speed, over exposed.., I would love your feed back on what I might have done right and what I did wrong. I was trying to fill the frame they fly really low up on the Mesa where I live. This is the only shot that I did not clip a wing.
Thanks for looking, all comments/tips/critiques are very much welcome.

Brian, this is what we call a high key shot, when the BG sky is totally blown out. Some people like them, some don't.
This one works for me, image looks sharp even though it's a bit hard to tell at this size. nice wing position
and flared tail.
Hi Tim, Thank you for the comment, I can honestly tell you it is a lot sharper at a higher res. I outputted one for myself and there is a lot more detail but I also can see a little bit more movement in it which I guess is not a bad thing. My question is, was this caused by the spot metering ?
Thanks again.
