Hi Doug First of all I think you could take advantage of the size allowed of 800 pixels Would give a larger image and more detail As presented would crop a little tighter to have the bird larger in frame As presented I can't make out the head well

I do like the flight position and exposure All good from my end !!! A possible improvement is a more dramatic wing position !!!

I updated the original to 800px.

looks good to me! i like the flight position and the compo looks great.

Nice, Doug. I think you could sharpen just a bit more, and maybe spot-sharpen the eye to bring it out more. I have yet to get close enough to one of these for a presentable image, so I'd be pleased with this!

Great composition Doug, tend to agree with Alfred on the wing position.
Overall a nice shot of flight.
