The red in the bg makes this special, Karl!

Nice wing position on this good looking Long-tailed, Karl. Trying to decide how I feel about the red in the water...it's different, that's for sure.
Cheers from the Canadian west coast,

Very nice flight shot, Karl!
Like the wings position and the red in the water.

Great flight pose and lighting on the bird Karl. Personally I find the red reflections in the water a bit distracting.

I love the great flight pose Karl, but for me the BG really competes with the subject. You guys sure have a good location for this species back east.

The reflected colour on the water adds a whole other dimension to an already fine image!
