    Default Greater Shearwater

    Another one from my pelagic trip last weekend. I'm not sure if the position of the far wing works for you.

    Beautiful details and bg Axel. The wing position works for me as you can see most of the top of the wing.

    Like it a lot Axel. The bird really pops with that great light and the beautiful blue BG.

    Wings are OK with me too. Love the light and eye contact. You really did good on that trip!

    Lots to like in this image. The eye contact puts it over the top.

    The wing position bothers me a little. If I had a mobile of a bird hanging from the ceiling, this is the exact wing position i would be in. I think that takes a tiny bit away from the "natural look." Otherwise, I agree with eye contact, exposure, bg.

    I think the wing postition works well here Axel.
    I love the detail that you can see througout this image. Stunning.
    As mentioned the eye contact and bg send this one over the top.
    Great job.

    stellar image... sure some more right wing would help it, but the bg, and detail bring this out to the top.
