You really caught a decisive moment here. Great composition and processing. I especially like the hint of texture in the background.
For some reason this reminds me of a party dress I had back around 1962 -- black with a frill around the bottom and a floaty thing off the back. I was something to behold. 8)
Wow this is a beauty! If you look real close on the birds left wing there is the top of a mans head just coming into view. He looks familiar I think. This is a very nice religious type image.:)
Not sure if that's rain or part of some texture but that downward motion works very well. It acts like gravity pulling down the bird as it tries to fly away.
