Herb, Looks good to me-however I have not been fortunate enough to capture one. The eye contact and wing spread are very nice. The BG is lovely- Well done.

Great fligh pose and eye contact, Herb.

Hey Herb, Welcome, and thanks for your membership support. This is a killer image--a perfect "T" shot. Love the stare and the backlight. Way to go with the +2 1/3 stops on the MIII--it yielded an excellent EXP.

The eye contact is excellent on this. The exposure also offers a great view of the bird's plumage. It may be my eyes but I think I see a slight halo around the wings and tail. However, there is definitely noise in the background that is easily eliminated.

I like the eye contact and flight pose, and a great job with the exposure.

Thanks for the comments folks, they're much appreciated.

Very nice result Herb. Perfect pose and head angle. :)
