    Loong-Tat:

    Very nice light , with just enough shadows to give texture. Amazing nest, good timing on capture. Nice background, although in a perfect world, it would be nice for the left upper corner to match the rest. Nice exposure.

    Cheers

    Wonderful nest. Nice framing. It would be easy to repair the BKGR ULC if that fits with your personal ethics. EXP perfect. Love the wing position of the bird. My only wish would be for the near wing to be sharper. TFS.

    Lovely BG, timing, and exposure. I agree with Artie on the wing, but this is still a really nice image.

    Taking a second look, the near wing in the full down position would have been killer.....
