    I know, past prime position, but I liked the wingspread and background. My Z9 has finally shipped. WOOT!!!

    Stunning underside view of this bird in perfect light. Exposure, details, and processing are about perfect. BG is sublime. My only issue is the head angle, but there's nothing you can do about that now. I think you could also move the bird a slight bit right. Asymmetry means less to me in vertical than in horizontals.

    love the light and the wing span, I agree with Dorian just a fraction of a second earlier with the bird angled slightly towards us would have been killer. It's tough to nail it with the DSLR but I am sure you will nail it with the Z9, looking forward to seeing your images!

    Agree with your self critique -- one second too late. Everything else is perfect.
