Hi John

Superb pose - great wingspread and talons out. Minor nit looks a little contrasty maybe too much USM!

I agree with David K about the USM, but your timing is superb.

Excellent John, would a vertical crop work too, just a thought? Would agree re DK observation about USM.

I'd agree with DK and I think I'd 'dumb down' that shadow a bit - but what a great action capture John, very envious

Nits covered but minor adjustment and it will be a brilliant shot. Very well captured.
