One of the more controlled landings. They're not always graceful coming in. :)

I swear the whites weren't this blown before I uploaded....

You can just feel the antisipated landing. great shot Steve. I'd take a bit off the right and put it on the left.

Steve,

Great timing. The orange feet are intense. Would certainly add some space in front.

Enjoy viewing

I agree. One of the more graceful landings I've seen. Great timing.

Nice bird and great landing, great action shot, whites to the edge and a little more room in front would have been nice!!! Congrats!!! 8)

Very well done. Timing is right on. I'm always too early or too late but you sure nailed this one.
