    Hi Alan,

    Very cool! The full down stoke of the wings and head turn is most pleasing. I fined the bird to be well exposed and sharp. I also like the soft simple complementary background. Very nice!!!!

    Beyond sick mister! sharpness, subject and BG are great, and I love the wing position. The body angle is not ideal but the perfect headturn makes more than up for it! On my crappy work screen this could use a bit more saturation overall. I am in awe! Very well done Alan!

    That looks unbelievable! Love the look-back inflight pose with the dangly legs. I would have like to see a bit more space around the bird.
