    Beautiful flight shot! Like the position of the wings and the clean background.

    Kiranbhai, excellent timing to capture this flight posture. Good eye contact, and I like the underwing detail, together with the colours and sharpness. Great BG too.

    I am jealous. I have yet to produce a good image of this species.
    Lovely wingspread and details to match. Excellent.

    Kiran, stunning...flight shot like at eye level on green layered BG is not very common.
