Hi Chris

Got a cool pose, razor sharp and good exposure. Its a shame about the shadow but not much you could have done. Earlier/later in the day might have made a different but a good image as presented !!!

I like the lookback pose, details and wing position. I agree regarding the light angle.

[Daniel Cadieux]

I agree about the shadow, but I love both the semi-circle swoosh of the wings and the downward glance towards us!! I also like the crossed feet...very neat :-)
