Very nice Peter. All seem to be in relatively good focus. Well done.

Hey Peter,
Excellent POV, nice detail and color, you nailed the exposure of those difficult whites and the wing positions are outstanding. The very impressive large version is showing 3 white specks in the water between and under the subjects as well as 4 white spots in the background grass. These can easily be cloned out to make this an even stronger image IMO.
Well done . . .  devil

A very nice flight shot, Peter.  Excellent exposure and good detail with a pleasing grouping.

A nice flight shot of these Mutes, Peter. Good work on the whites and good wing position in all three birds.

Very nice capture Peter, the lead bird is nice and sharp, a little more depth of field for the back bird would have been good, nicely done. devil

Lovely shot and the horizontal crop works well to enhance with the lines/trajectory of the birds.
