Beautiful flight capture. Like the low POV and the fully extended wings as he glides. Neat to see how tightly compacted the legs are for less air resistance.
Thanks everyone for viewing and commenting. I guess I should have written more on the conditions when I captured this image. The morning had been very foggy, sunrise brought an overcast sky, so it was a dark day (note the 5600 ISO). I think remnants of fog hung in the air because the original was quite hazy. The softness in the image most likely is due to noise reduction and countering the haze in post processing. Thanks again everyone.
