Nailed this Dave. As mentioned, bit tight on the left but everything else is perfection.

Hi Dave,
Love the pose, details and title -would add another vote for a tad more room on the right.
Best,

Hi Dave, pin sharp detail and exposure from the near underwing, and love the landing posture. The space in front doesnt bother me, but I would like to see a little more on the LHS.

Dave, Beautiful landing pose with the feet up. A bit tight in the back.

[Arthur Morris]

Looks great for all the reasons mentioned above. I would crop a bit off the bottom as that light area drags the viewer's eye down a bit. Is this full frame?

[Morkel Erasmus]

lovely pose, exposure and pose Dave. agree with some space needed behind but not that big of a bother, and I'm with Artie on cropping some from the bottom...

[Dave Barnes]

Thanks to all for looking and for comments.
Arthur this is a bit more than full frame. I added a bit top, and right. (You may be able to see the stretch marks:D)
I also took a tad off the left to move the bird off centre. I know that most are asking for more space behind the wing but that moves the bird more central and this looked better to my eye. I agree a bit more of a pano crop with some off the bottom cam work well.

Hey Dave,

Thanks for the info. Stretch marks not really evident.
