This is another image of a Frigatebird that I made at James Shadle's boat. This one is a female and I also liked the clouds in the BG.

I like everything about this, the perspective, the head angle, the clouds. Very cool to see the top of the bird's wings.
Fine work Axel. Grey blue background is killer.
Love the shapes of the Frigatebird's wings in contrast to the tail shape, like an X or hourglass, convex v. concave, you know what I mean!

Simply, well, magnificient! I wouldn't mind less room at right so it matches the amount of room above...but wow what a beautiful pose, combined with your usual perfect techs:cool:.
Beautiful pose and composition. Love the angle formed by the wings.
Another wonderful image of this bird that is not easy to photograph. Love the pose, the spread tail and the top plumage. Tecs as expected from you, perfect. Congratulations.

Hi Axel. Magnificent bif shot - oncoming, good head angle and eye contact, great banking wing and tail spread. I like the comp as is, and good bg tops it off, with terrific exposure.
Love that magnificent wingspread! The details on the top of wing is fabulous.
Axel, I think the catchlight is really making this one a winner. Killer wingspread and details there. Thx for sharing. Looks like you guys had a lot of fun in Florida.
Wow, loved that pose, the HA really adds to it.. nice details and compo..
Not much more to say. Stunning image, amazing pose, details and comp.
Congrats.

Excellent top view and details Axel, great pose, Minor point: I think you forgot to run chroma NR, here is a repost with slight chroma NR

Thanks, Arash! I think I did run color NR, maybe not enough, though.
Stunning wingspread...exposure and sharpness are excellent Axel.
I looked had at your original post and the one Arash ran NR on and I'm having a hard time seeing much of a difference that I can put my finger on BUT...somehow it does look a bit cleaner.
i just like it! the clouds are sweet but the position of the bird is killer!! nice job, axel!!!
Excellent shot, the pose really makes this a great shot. A nice simple setting and great exposure.
