I really like the pose - effortlessly hanging on a current of air and checking out what's going on below. You've cropped the photo beautifully.

Simple, clean, elegant and lots of movement. All that got this in my favorites. Nice comp.

this is what I wanted but clouds lack of birds and also my eyesight unable to follow the action. so well done a good eye on the bird.

Nicely framed and exposed. A bit of a crop by the looks of it.

Thanks Jade O. and out of focus. The camera was FZ28.

Nicely lit and framed, with really good control of the light to avoid the blown highlight problem while still getting the detail in things like the beak and feet. An after thought for me was the eye is dark and if the light doesn't provide for it, I always go in and add a little reflection (just a dot of white) to give the eye life!
