    Good action here Eddie. The bird is not fliying paralel to the camera or towards you and that is not great. Sahrpness and colours are fantastic and I think that the out of focus stuff at the lower right corner could be cloned out if it is OK with your ethics, of course ;-)

    The wing position is beautiful in this capture as well as the excellent color and detail. As mentioned above the flight position would be more ideal if he had been flying parallel and I would like to have seen more canvas at the top. Many thanks for sharing Eddy and we will look forward to more.

    Really nice sharpness. Agree with Juan's comment about the bird flying away from you. I would move the bird to the right a bit. Also, the sky is a funny shade of blue on my monitor. Please try to include tech specs with all of your photo submissions. Thanks for posting!
