A beauty of a flight shot. Great light, color, detail and flight position.

Denis, This is exceptional. Maybe if the background was a tad lighter, it might help the bird stand out even better?

Fantastic BIF if this bird. Dark BG adds good drama IMHO.

Best,

Matt

Beautiful flight pose and wing position. The dark background helps the bird stand out nicely.

Great capture Denis. The details look awesome and the light angle is about perfect. I really like the dark green BG as well. Well done

Thanks for the kind words,everyone,as they are much appreciated.
I,m a proponent of darker backgrounds myself,and that,s purely a personal taste,and often darken them in a layer,then brush the bird out. I feel it gives me a better separation,and makes the subject pop,but that,s just me!
