Comment by SJCarter:
Really nice shot and in any other challenge this would have been right up there at the top, but the competition is fierce, so I'm being a little more picky than I normally would. I think the DOF is good, but could be better at the tail. I like the movement of the wings. Also there are a couple of hot spots on the fly that detract from it's color and definition. All in all, a really great capture (and like I said, would have scored a 9 from me with less competition). 7
