    Good take off posture ( well thats what it looks like ) and I like the overall exposure. Im fine with the shadow cast on the far wing, and separated from the BG nicely. I would maybe add a touch more contrast.

    Excellent image all around. I like the shadow, adds drama to the photo. I also like the textured BG, much more interesting than homogenous blue.

    I like the shadow on the wing! Perhaps the two-tone BG is a bit distracting, but not excessively so -- I guess because I'd expect to see the blue below rather than above (as if the blue were water).

    I see you are located in Pilanesburg Park. I have very good memories of a day spent there, from pre-dawn to dusk, about fifteen years ago. What a great place to be a photographer!
