Sweet light on this one. The wings up eliminates the shadows on the body. Excellent shot.

Sweet light as Bill said and he really has his feet tucked up out of the way! :shock:

Nice light and the underwings are nicely devoid of shadow. I think cropping a bit off the rear end and leaving more in the front would work well.

Nice shot! Great light and good position of the birds wings. A bit centered for me but I now know how hard flight shooting these birds really is.

Beautiful light and wing position. cropping a bit from behind the bird and maybe adding a bit in front would strengthen the composition.

Very nice, Dick.

Your 300mm lens did just fine.

Dick,

Nice shot. Beautiful light and wing position. Maybe just a tad more room in front.
