Nice bird in flight image; excellent detail and sweet light.

A good one Sandy. I like the wing position you caught as well as the details and colors in the crane. I do wish for a bit more detail in the light area on head and neck. Thanks for sharing.

The clarity and detail in the Crane look great, Sandy. The color coordination with the background also works well. I think burning in the grasses on the far shoreline a bit would let the bird grab more attention.

Excellent perspective, Sandy, with the water and the distant banks both playing their part in offsetting the flight of the bird. Beautifully captured details.
