Killer bird, pose, BKGR, and the image ain't bad either. Does the repost look better or worser?

I think somewhere in between for me. It took me a while to figure out what kind of Kite this was. Thanks for the kind comment and repost Arthur.

Beautiful bird. Nice view and wings. I like the background as well.
I notice this a lot that my images looks much brighter in my photoshop or JPEG in my desktop but looks darker when I uploaded to BPN.
Very neat looking bird. Everything looks spot on composition,pose and background.
Very nice look at a bird I have never seen.
I think you could lower the exposure a tad to make it pop more..

pretty unique bird and a nice top side view, looks like a very large crop and IQ has suffered....

Super cool bird that I have only seen once. Saw it flying back and forth from Texas to Mexico as viewed from the Texas side of the Rio Grande. Nice topside view but I agree that the image quality is lacking a bit. I also wish that the tail was flared and showing and not obscured behind the bird.
What a great bird that I had never heard of un til today! Agree re:IQ issues but still a great bird to have on file!
Well done Jim, great lookin kite, love the position.
