Nice timing on this take-off Mike. I do find the sky a bit saturated. I would guess this is pretty accurate color, but it still overtakes the image a bit IMO. I might tone it down a touch.

Hi Mike,

Looks pretty good--lots of nice details present in large view.  I cannot give you an evaluation on the sky--maybe a slight reduction in saturation.  Not a deal breaker.  I like the pose and this should make a very nice print...........................Jim

Excellent lift-off shot of this Osprey, Mike.  Detail in the bird and exposure are spot on.  Well done.

Very nice launch shot, Mike. Impressive depth of field for f5.6.

Just about perfect Osprey shot! Agree on the sky. It may be correct, but toning it down a bit helps accent the attention on the bird.

Nice liftoff image and the slight blur in the right wing tip gives a nice motion effect.
