I dont think I have ever seen a landing with as much angle as this, impressive :) although I might like just a small bit of extra canvas at the top and left.

Very cool pose, details and BG. It could go a tad brighter for my taste and I wish we could see the far wing, too.

[Chris Kotze]

Excellent pose and detail. Great shot under the conditions Dave

[Stu Bowie]

Dave, you nailed this one. As we know, these guys can give us all sorts of postures, and you have captured the classic "braking" one. Pin sharp, well exposed on the underwing, and he pops from the BG nicely.

[Steve Canuel]

Nice pose. I really like the fanned tail, raised feet, and look on the face. Visually looks a little odd to my eye without the other wing being visible but not necessarily a problem for me.

Thanks to all for looking and for comments, they are all appreciated.
