    Agree with Kaustubh, excellent BIF, love the very sharp bird, detail, BG and wing position TFS.

    Nice flight image Mital. Techs look good. I like the bg, even though it cuts through the wings the transition is soft enough not to be a distraction. Well done.

    Nice wing positions, good comp and BG. Sharp. Too bad the head seems angled away a tad. Although the whites are not clipped, I personally find them strong here and I would tone them down a bit. Not an easy image to get!!

    Quite wonderful with killer wing position and SH. The head angle looks fine to me, maybe because I love shorebirds so much. A 10% linear burn on the whites would probably improve this already spectacular image.

    Super sharp, with great wing position and head angle. Like the dangling feet. The whites on the wings look perfect; on the body, perhaps a little bright.
