Great landing action, Sandy. I can see why it's a favorite.

Sandy, to me, storks (and pelicans) always seem to look awkward, except when sailing through the sky and this landing shows that well. The white on white works well, also.

Very nice composition on this one. The large image has a painterly effect. I don't know if you were going for that. It works for me. What percentage of full frame is this?

Gorgeous image! I especially like the beautiful detail in the wing feathers and the tension created by the WS as he reaches for the snag.
