I like that you've chosen to leave just a bit of the wood where he was taking off from. Makes it more of a story of an event instead of just a bird flying in mid air, yet it's subtle and doesn't detract from the main focus. Very nicely done!

Oh my, what a beautiful picture and such an unusual view of this great bird. I would have cropped out the lower left hand structure but that is my opionion. Great work.

Lovely color & contrast; sharp, clean image. Leaving a hint of the roost is a nice touch as well.

Comment by SDW:
nice focus on the turtle but not large enough to give the overall picture the feeling of being in focus. I find myself drawn to the oof areas. Being a tight shot does not give me a real sense of rural landscape. I feel a larger field of view and more of the surrounding in focus could of improved your photograph. ~Wish you the best in the challenge (4).
