    :eek:Wow...really great image. I only wish the birds right wing tip wasn't over a dark part of the BG...but it's only a very minor thing for me (and almost impossible to do anything about in the field!;)). Fantastic view of a great bird, and good exposure. Awesome!

    Great pose and backside view. I also like the details and soft light and only wish for a bit subject/BG separation. Thanks for sharing!

    Love those dorsal view flight images. Sharp and a great bird. I QMed all of the dark areas, did a SH ADJ while increasing mid-tone contrast via the slider.
