    Striking image Alan. Possibly the best Harris' image I've ever seen.
    Love everything about it.

    Great capture Alan! The exposure and details are spectacular. Also loved the clean background. The cropping is a bit tight, but understandable as you are trying to show the details!

    Have a great weekend!

    Alan:

    Spectacular. Looser cropping for a different venue would be even stronger.

    Cheers

    Amazing sharpness, details and flight pose. Truly incredible image, TFS.
    Feel a bit tight even for web image.
