Excellent feather detail, background, wing position and even lighting. Well done.

Love the trailing edge of front wing. The background very nice.

Well done, Sandy. You might look at brightening the water just a tad.

Great wing stretch, Sandy. Beautiful timing and I like the feel of the water in the bg.

Amazing feather detail in this nice flight shot. If this isn't full frame, I'd include a little more space all around. Sharon
