Lovely color and nice detail especially in the larger version. Good wing position. Nice light.

A very good flight shot. Excellent timing on the downstroke of the wings.

A lovely flight shot of this bird, Jagdeep.  This is one of my favorite wing positions for cranes and you have great light on both the upper and lower surfaces.  I also like the sharpness of the eye in the larger version.

The large version is a must see.  Great detail, wing position and environmental background.  Excellent image.

A very nice image, I agree with the others you have to view the larger version to appreciate it fully.

Beautiful image and since no one has mentioned how nicely the bird pops against the background, I will say that it does.
