    Great pose detail and exposure. Super well done. How about some space top and right?

    Lovely banking pose, light, and BG. Agree about the space, and would sharpen the head more.

    Nice job getting the top side view. I like the wing and tail spread.

    Another vote for more space and sharpening. Lovely dorsal view, neat BG and fanned tail.

    Love, love, love the perfect dorsal view, the spread tail, and the BKGR. A bit of a head turn towards you would have been a dream....

    Wonderfull species, great BG, stunning light, pose, detail, and colors, the HA works very well for me, I would only suggest a bit more sharpening on the head.
    Congratulations!

    Well captured to get the banking angle to show the dorsal view. I like the fanned tail, and would only add a tad to the top. Another killer BG too.

    Bird stands out well against a great BG. Like the angle, fanned tail, full spread of wings & feather detail. Great capture!
