Nice juxtaposed angles, Paul. A very interesting shot.

Great shot Paul, I like the wing position caught just before the flop over and dive.

Nice composition. I like the angle of the wings. :)

I like this very much. Great lines formed by the wings and very nice technicals.

Great one Paul. I too like the lines fomed by the wings. I'll add that the bill position extends the line of the upper wing.

Intense look in the eye, can almost see the concentration, it's locked onto a fish for sure!

This really illustrates how streamlined they can make themselves before a high speed maneuver really well.

Rockin! I like the diagonal angles the wings make.
