Quite an achievement to capture this in flight and so sharp, Desmond. Light and feather detail is great. I like the pose with extended wings, flared tail and eye catchlight.

[Ákos Lumnitzer]

Excellent wingspread. Love it, I cannot say enough good about this image. I would not dare pick a thing. :)

You have done extremely well to capture such a quick and agile flying character. Great wingspread, and like the light and colours on the wings. Great capture Desmond.
