    Happy New year to you as well Glenn!
    A wonderful, dynamic image to end the year with.
    The BG is, as usual, "to die for". Nice and sharp with perfect exposure.
    This is my nemesis bird!

    Glenn, sweet shot my friend. You hit everything... BG, HA, exposure, sharpness and exposure.

    Great shot Glenn! Love the HA, light, and pose. Good composition with the bird on the right flying into the open space on the left. Looking forward to shooting with you in 2017!

    Beautiful take off pose with a killer head angle and background. I think it would have been a little better if we could see more of the tail and the right wing was a little lower. Still a wonderful shot as presented.
