    Lovely flight pose and the fanned tail and the fanned wings are very beautiful. I do see that the lighting was harsh and it would be great if the lighting had been behind you as you would have seen more detail in the feathers on the underside. Great timing Tom and many thanks for sharing.

    Agree with Judy 100%. Also, the green in the BG is nice and IMO with a better light this would've been a great shot with a lovely blue-green BG! Congratulaitons!

    The light is very important for the captures. It didn't work in your favor here.

    The flight pose, however, is great. Keep them coming.

    Many thanks to you all for your comments which are very much appreciated and valued.

    Light was always going to be an issue here as it was shot late afternoon with the sun behind me but there was a building about 6 feet behind me so the Dove was always flying into the shade.
