Very nice, Chris. Nice wingspread, good exposure and colours. I like the face shadow on the far wing. I know the 1D MKIV is good at handling noise, but it looks to me like you had enough SS to lower the ISO you had...just for that much better IQ at larger sizes. Well done overall.

Great landing pose Chris, with excellent exposure on the whites. Nice and sharp too.
