    Hi Colin, pretty dynamic dive you captured. However, since we have a full under view, I'd prefer more head turn with a bit more eye... Exposure looks good with warm light but i bet there is much more detail to be had, maybe worth a reprocess, etc, ... TFS

    The details seem to be lacking on the bird. Is this a big crop?

    Thanks for the comments, yes a big crop so there is no more detail to be had. Just a pose and light snapshot really from while I was practicing my BIF technique.

    I like the composition and the light. Looks like the bird is flying away from you.
