Edwin, I wish you didn't have those flares on the image. Light behind the right wing and feet positions are great. It is just perfect timing with landing and the light. No one can ever capture this again. Well done.

Otherworldly feel and mood. Like the golden glow, the position of the dove and even the flares. I too believe in angels.

Killer silhoutte Edwin :eek: Love that back light through the wings and being able to see detail in the bird.
