Morkel - great action and it has held up well except for a bit more noise in the bg than we normally see on your images. I wish you could have gotten closer but we all know how that isn't always possible.

Hi Morkel I like this, still away so will take a look early next week again when I'm back. Overall it has a nice feel to me, like the space, just wonder about a little off the LHS to take it of centre? I also like the clash of the heads and rearing bodies.
Will comment more later, BTW just found a Short Eared Owl site, so going back tomorrow, -7 here, so hope you are enjoying the warm sun.
cheers

That's fine Morkel, I guess it can work either way, however I do like the space around the subject as presented.

Really nice action photo, Morkel.
There is a bit of noise, but one more round of NR on the BG should take care of that.
I like the crop and the room.

Quality has held up well Morkel, considering the large crop, would be happy to have this, nice action from this pair.

Dan, we have a lot of light in general, but we also have inclement weather like anywhere else. On this day it was overcast with intermittent rain (as stated in my OP).
One of the main reasons you see many of my images at high ISO settings is because I love shooting in the golden hours of dawn and dusk, and to maintain certain SS/aperture combos on my kit I set it to auto-ISO

Very nice Morkel. I like it as posted for the action, colors, and slightly blurred vignette look. Nicely done

Beautiful shot. I love it. Great action/head positions and the OOF areas/colours are fabulous. Love it. Comp works for me. The background is so nice and smooth that I actually find the very faint darker line distracting. If it were mine I would be tempted to crop it out or have it right at the edge of the frame.
