    Hi Dave, well done on capturing him against the green foliage BG. Good exposure on the underwing, sharp, and the stilt stands out very well.

    Very nice flight shot -- I like that red eye and detail in the blacks.

    Quite different to our species, like the BG and wing positions would be tempted to crop tighter.

    Very good exposure job Dave, superb BG and wing position, perfect light angle and a composition that I really like. Very good job on this long legs guy ;)

    This is fabulous. Great detail in both the whites an blacks. No dreaded intersection of the legs and water/foliage line. The body, wing and legs have a really interesting 2D geometry. At first I thought about cropping tighter, like Arash, but as I look more I think that would be a mistake.

    Fantastic capture. Excellent posture, details and background. I would also try a tighter crop.
