    Killer light! Good landing pose with that parallel profile. Sharp. Tough to get something more out of the far wing, at least you got a couple of primaries poking up back there - although it would have been nice for that far wing to have been a bit higher...not an image wrecker by any means.

    Awesome. Everything works: lighting, pose, composition, etc. Warm tones are great. I think you have the room to up the global exposure a bit; whole frame feels the slightest bit heavy right now. Easy fix if you wanna go in that direction.
