Incredible body/wing position. The detail for a shot like this is amazing. Good stuff.

Beautiful!! Great light, nice BG, crisp sharp and great action!! :shock:
Have fun in Israel my homeland. There are not that many birds there right now. You should try the fish farms in one of the Kibutzim along the shore - you can find the Common, the pied and the White Breasted Kingfishers who are common and easy to photograph! Take care and Shalom! :D

very nice ! i find it amazing the contortions that birds subject themselves to during various acrobatic maneuvers ! maybe that's why so many people like to shoot birds in flight :-)

Interesting position, Richard. This does not look like the most graceful SHC at Bosque. Nice shot and hope you have a nice trip.
