I really like this photo. I like the elements that show action in the photo, the slight blurring of the wings and the falling shells. Well done!

Very good use of space and form. Those falling seeds are a plus.

It is like a still moving picture. Very well done.

Very nice, Antino. I like very much the pose and the choice of SS. Very sharp were it counts as well.
Congratulations.

Excellent action and composition, Antino. The white is rather blown-you might try bringing it down in RAW.

Antino, I like the flight posture and the feeding behavior. I think your framing works well also. Agree that the whites seem pretty bright though.

Interesting flight pose and feeding action Antino, I really like the fallings seeds. As mentioned the whites look a bit toasty, you may be able to bring those down in ACR if this was shot in RAW but if you bring them down too much they may ended up looking gray. Composition works well for me.
