    Hi Arash. Wonderful shot. Shows the beautiful Willet plumage nicely, with great light, detail, pose, BG. Glad to see you back.

    Welcome back Arash! This is a very unusual looking Willet in flight image to me! The obvious tilt of the birds close wing toward the camera with the far wing tilting away, with both in fairly sharp focus creates a Willet with short looking wings! Frame-filling and COOL!

    Arash,

    Glad you're back. I really like the lighting and the position of the wings and nice job on nailing a sharp BIF.

    Excellent shot, not much to critique here from my perspective, focus, lighting and background are all right on. TFS

    Hi Arash, tack sharp, and you have captured some excellent detail. Overall well exposed, and I do like the banking angle.

    Between your view and mine below you get to see the total beauty of this bird.... Fantastic flight shot that only a few can get it this good.

    A belated welcome back to you Arash. I'm in Costa Rica and this is the first internet access I've had since the 26th. You know I love this shot! Super sharp, sweet light, and a great head angle. Hope to see more of your images here!
