I like this shot Phil, it really conveys movements. The swelling of the water and the stretched wings works well. Nice one.

Regards,

Des :toast: :toast: :wavey:

Nice one Phil,

These birds never stop moving so you have done well to get this one so sharp.

Hello Phil.

Stunning detail in those wings and the swell in the water really adds to the feel of the image.

All been said already, a great image, the only thing I would like to see is a tad more room on the left for the bird to look into. Otherwise, fabulous.

Wow, a cracking shot really love the symetrical spread of the wings. I reckon an architect could design a modern building from that gorgeous shape :biggrin:

Nice One! :toast:
