Tack sharp and a great comp - tiny nit from me would be birds left wing is a bit tight to the edge of the frame, but what the heck...................... :wavey:

Really superb cap :toast: :toast: :toast:

Yes, I also like the kite itself a lot, detail and pose are great but I am not too fond of all the oof white blobs. I suppose they could be cloned away quite easily if you wanted! Very good shot though

Blobs aside, a nice image Brian. In fact the blobs don't bother me that much. Nice to see some green and not sky to be honest. Great pose and comp
