Flying

This reminds me of a shot from last week's macro challenge. Honestly, I liked the other version better. Cool little fireworks thing going on with the upper seeds (were they really flying?). Photo seems a tad overly manip'd (for my tastes).

I'd have liked to see the eagle closer, but that's asking a bit too much. I think the framing is a bit backwards, the bird is soaring out of the frame instead of into it. 8 Rob the Swash

Very good shot! Rotors nicely stopped! The background seems a bit hazy, do you have a haze filter? 9 Rob the Swash

Interesting, but far too manipulated for my "photo" tastes (sorry, my bad). Did you add grain? (see sky) 5 Rob the Swash

A bit faster exposure (if possible), I don't mind the wings being blurred, but the body, feet and head...no). Nice framing. Good color. 7 Rob the Swash

Cool clouds! (Isn't the plane a bit small and maybe a bit out of focus?) 7 Rob the Swash

Very well taken photo. IMO, the challenge really was aimed at an action shot, this isn't. I'm not going to "punish" you greatly, just a little ;).....6 Rob the Swash

A bit too much saturation (I think), it makes the wings seem over-exposed. Nice action stop! I like the angle of this photo, nice capture. 8 Rob the Swash

Lovely photo - wrong challenge. Too bad about the gutter (lower left). The best I can go for this is a 6. Rob the Swash
