Cleared for landing

Avocet, still in breeding plumage gave a nice 'gear down' landing pose for me.
D850
600mm+1.4
Handheld
ISO 640
1/4000
f6.3
LR and PS. Smoothed the color transition a bit and a couple distractions on the ground in the bkg.

Sublime canvas, just sublime... TFS

This is fantastic. I love the BG, the pose, the whites.
Tack sharp too!
I have absolutely no nits with this frame.
Well done,

Wow Brian. Love everything about this. the exposure is just great and IQ is very good. Avos are (at least in my neck o the woods) not that uncommon, but this shows a good shot is a good shot. Really like it. TFS!

Exceptionally beautiful soft light on this brilliant capture, Brian. What a great approach image.

The landing pose is dead on. Lovely detail on the bird as well. Background is another plus. A nice image all around.

Just beautiful Brian, only thing I can suggest is a little more negative space to the right to land in if you have it, but everything else is stunning
