Beautiful flight pose and eye contact Marco. I would like to see a slightly different crop. Cropping more off the left side and perhaps a tad more top and bottom and a little less canvas on the right but more on the right than left. The thirds rule. A true vertical would strengthen this lovely flight capture. Many thanks for sharing.

Hi Marco,
I also like the flight pose. The diagonal the the wings introduce into the image helps add dynamic energy and emphasize the motion in my opinion. An alternative prevention to emphasize the diagonal would be to crop to a vertical with the wings pointing to the corners. This might be a little tight for some. Just a suggestion and something to consider. It is up to you to what works best. Thanks for sharing.

I like the incoming pose and sharpness. I like the idea of a vertical crop and would lighten the bird's left eye.
