    Hey, Cody. I agree that it's not a conventional crop, but I also agree it is interesting. I would consider cropping off a bit more. On the top I would take it below the dark part of the far wing. Then I would take a bit off the sides as well - maybe at the bend of the near wing.

    Cody, good action capture and the crop is not bad. What hurts this image is the neck and head obscuring the far wing. A stronger image would have the angle more to the front of the bird or more to the left so the head and neck are clear of the wing. Pretty good job on the exposure, but it does seem a little bright - the white patch on the face is a bit hotter than you would like.
