    Great shot James, getting that eye so clear, really captures its namesake. Like the slight blur to the wing to give sense of motion. Nicely done!

    James, this is very good. He must have been really fast....judging by the wing blur at 1/2500s. IQ very good for that high ISO. Techs are perfect for execution of this shot. Terrific light and sharpness.

    Look very sharp with excellent details, good exposure, the flight pose is great too, background looks alright to me and the droplets add to the image. Another great flight shot from you, TFS.

    Beautiful light and detail. Wish the wings were not blurred.
