    Beautiful colour palette and lovely downstroke. Beautiful all the way around with good sharpness. Love the BG colours too.

    BG and the wing position are really striking, light is sweet, however the critical focus is on the wing and head looks a bit soft. TFS

    Too bad thea the focus point is not in the eye :( Light, action, composition and pose are just fantastic

    Nice flight shot . I always prefer to focus the Eye or chin of the bird.
