    Nice striding pose, details and light. I'm wondering if a lower angle would have helped. Thanks for sharing!

    Beautifully captured Adam with great action and wonderful eye contact. Love the low angle tooas well as excellent exposure. Thanks for sharing.

    Like the raised foot especially. Is the face a bit over-sharpened???

    Very nice image. I don't think I would change anything on this one.

    HI Adam,

    Very nice light and low angle. Looks like it needs a little CW rotation.

    I love low angle photographs of birds like this....well done and the lifted foot really adds interest here. I agree with the technical aspects mentioned....it looks oversharpened, needs some CW rotation and I wonder if you went a bit too far with your shadow/highlights-tool in PS?

    Hey Maxis,
    Help me out here, what do you see in the picture that tells it may need CW rotation?

    Thank you,

    Hey Jasper,
    Thank you for the comments, I agree with you and Artie, It does look a little oversharpened in the face.I did not use the S/H tool on this picture.
    Thank you again
