Like the capture and the high key PP, but would have liked it better if you could see the head of the bird more.

can't decide if that heavy forewing detracts from the elegance or adds to the power, or both. I don't usually care much for frames, but it is essential to this one. 8

A moment in flight like your photo shows the interesting anatomy need to get up there. I like the high key presentation.

Just slightly over exposed. The brightness infringes on the top of the bird and sorta mixes with the white of the tail feathers. 6

Beautiful picture! The border is a bit to big imho.

Personally, I think that the border is too thick and detracts from your subject

nice bird, the background is too much for me.

very interesting. i think the border is too thick though.

not sure the high key works for me here. I would like to see more photo and less border.

Nice high key. Great details on the wings.

Cool shot! I like the detail in the wings. Maybe the border is just a bit too big? 9

i like the use of high contrast.

Black border seems a little heavy in balance with a quite delicate animal.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
09/01/2006 12:03:43 PM
Nice capture though I think it would work even better if the bird were in the upper left corner looking into the frame. 6
