    Terrific eye contact, and you gotta love that red tail too! The wing position could be better, in either a full downstroke or full upstroke position; it's a shame that the far wing is sitting just behind the head. Thanks for posting!

    I agree the eye contact is superb and to capture the red tail so well is a bonus but I do agree with Doug's comments on the wing position. Many thanks for sharing Rob.

    EXC sharpness on the eye and a good EXP. I am fine with the head framed by the far primiares but would have loved to have seen the dorsal surface of the near wing. All in all well done.
