    Marietjie, I like the landing posture, and just the detail and colours on their heads. Maybe a bit tight on top, but he is going downwards. Well captured.

    Fabulous V that makes a strong compo. I like the open tail and clean BG and the grounding rocks too.

    I kinda like the wing swooping toward the top. Like how the rocks ground the image.

    Sweet,

    Beautiful wing position. I like the rocks too...but will like it without them as well. Liked the focussed look on his face.

    Nice sharp flight image. I like the feather detail under the wings. Don,t like the rocks but they are there. You could clone them out? Well done.

    Nice light, pose and focus, Marietjie - rocks work for me. I might try and do a bit of a clean-up job on the soiled breast feathers.
