Wonderful bird and background for this concept. Tones are wonderfully rich and the bird is in perfect position in the frame. Very nice lighting, too.

Yes, very prehistoric looking! Lovely in flight capture, that can't be easy.

This is a very cool capture. It suffers from lack of processing - such as lightening and intensification of colors with a levels adjustment layer, and a bit of sharpening.

a 10 straight across the board, totally fabulous capture, well done.

I hace come back to add to his picture. The blues are intense, the legs are primeval, the shape of his wings whilst it is beating has created such a huge concave there that your eyes are drawn to them and certainly would be more drawn to them than just being straight out in flight. This was a brilliant shot, I totally love it.
