Hi Arash,
This is one of my favorite pics of yours. I love the contrast between the pink and the green. The bird looks like it is floating through the air, almost a 3D effect. Of course, the exposure is spot on and BG is perfect. You blow me away with your shots!

What's not to like Arash? You're a flight photography machine! Super eye contact and wing position. I might go a little brighter on the whites though.

[Melissa Groo]

Just a lovely image, Arash. Beautiful wing position and wonderful atmospheric feel to the low light. Sharpness and bird angle to camera are just superb as usual.

[Jim Crosswell]

Great image Arash! I like the wing position, sharpness and BG.

Hey Arash, Ive always loved the colours of your spoonies. Doug's spot on with regards to your flight photography - you seem to nail everything that comes across your lens. Excellent exposure and sharpness, and pops nicely from the green BG. Well captured.

Arash, the BG makes this one quite special...lots of feel. terrific sharpness and DOF.

[Robert Holguin]

Wow!!! Fabulous image. Love the wing position, exposed perfectly, great background, and comp.
Well done.

[Dan Busby]

Very special Arash - almost surreal.

Another high iso beauty from you.
Great IQ at 1600.
I don't know how you do it!

[Jim Fenton]

Love the contrasting colors, pose is great, sharpness is perfect.

Perhaps just a bit more on the blacks to take the slight muddiness from the background and punch it up wo match the lighting on the bird?

A perfectly freezed image I specifically love the colours on the bird

[Arno Ellmer]

thanks all for the nice comments,

Dan I use advanced NR technique and the MK4 isn't bad at 1600 to begin with. some cameras just can't do this....

Wonderful freeze with great details. Loved the pose and color shades.
