You really stopped the motion with the setup John. I like the bird color and iridescence a lot. The background isn't quite up to the same standard, seems to be some pixellation and the f22 has revealed a few sensor spots, we all get 'em, that's what cloning is great for. :smile: A fine image over all.

Beautiful freeze action and detail.
I might clone out two of the flash highlights.
