Hello Sion
A fantastic capture of this glorious Red Kite, Lovely and sharp and shows well the power in the wings as the bird almost scrapes across the ground.
Congratulations on your new lens as well.
All the Best

Hi neighbor! really is good to take this opportunity to see your work. This photo is of good quality despite the difficult lighting and POV really committed. The result is good, and the pose of the bird is downright beautiful, you can see all the majesty of its flight and the projection of its motion. It is difficult to achieve this 1/400s and 500mm of focal length! congratulations!. I have to become more aware of your photos in the future! Greetings from Venezuela! TFS!

Sion,

This is awesome! I have to ask... did you have to leap out of its way after you took the photo?

Excellent detail of the face and motion blur in the wings.

Hello Sion,
Hope you'll be doing fine friend. Yes, after your two recent comments to my photos, I deemed it absolutely necessary to go looking for your photos and spotted this one on page-5 I think and was delighted by the sight.The note is is really very useful, a storehouse of information and a good story about the recovery of an almost extinct bird. The photo is superb indeed, the posture fantastic. Your focusing is sharp and congratulations for buying a new camera lenses. Hope the birds in the BG are rooks or ravens.Thanks a lot for sharing something unique indeed.....and thanks again for comments, bro. Take care...warmest regards/Abid

Hi Sion,
What amazing images!
Excellent capture of this bird of prey. Excellent POV you chose and which gives us very fine details. And I know how hard it is to catch something, especially in flight.
Wait and other beautiful pictures from you.

hello Sion

you did an excellent in-flight photo of the Red Kite,
fine forntal POV, superb focus sharpness and details
of his body and head, the blur of his wings give
the motion of the image and his flight pose with
his glance are giving dynamism to the image, TFS
