This image was taken last week on my dock. This Barn Swallow is my morning coffee companion on occasion. This image was hand held from my chair.
Hope you enjoy the image.

Jim, I feel like Barn Swallows never get any love. Really stunning detail in this portrait. The veins in the mouth get bonus points.
Gets a touch noisy at the LR corner but a really nice and interesting capture overall.
Great calling pose, good details through. I find the bird a bit big in the frame and the composition a bit awkward...tough shot to compose

Very nice closeup, Jim, open mouth is great.

Looks good, our focus goes right to the gape and eye. Would have been nice to have a bit more DOF across the bird, but you were short on light already. I think this is a fine frame. I might move
the bird a bit right to give him more room on the left and lose those most out of focus posterior bits.
Love that open mouth. I like the framing as is.
