That's a beauty. Great lighting and exposure. Good job you weren't any closer.

Agree with Phil S on this one, your exposure is nailed. Love the wing position too and how there is just enough lighting to define each feather of the underwing, good work, Phil.

Phil the exposure you have got on this white bird is stunning.
