Hi Kevin.
Amazingly and such an acrobatic pose!
I like very much the dynamism of the image, where you caught to the bird in this close turn.
Beautifully lighted, proper focus and sharp details on the moving subject, nothing easy to achieve!
My compliments one more time, and thanks so much to share your talent with us.
Best regards,
JM

Hello Kevin,
Whether in-flight bird shots are new or not to you, you are a real expert at taking them. I agree that this one tops your previous excellent in-flight images of Black-capped Chicadee, both in technical and artistic qualities and the POV is superb. Once again an amazing result using ambient light at only ISO 200 at this time of year in Canada!
Well done my friend, it's a delight to see your work,
Ivan

Hello Kevin
You use the tools at your disposal like a fine craftsman.
This picture is fantastic (as is your whole series)..
A picture of a bird in flight is in essence the hardest to capture...especially when it is a bird as small as the chickadee and you pull it off with details that really should be published.
No more words from me..I shall just enjoy what I can capture with my eye but not with my camera!!
The Best of Regards
Paul

Salut Kevin
Jusqu'où iras tu ? Tu n'en finis pas de nous ravir avec ces oiseaux en vol, dans des positions plus incroyables les unes que les autres. Celle là est en effet la plus réussie, grâce à la position des ailes. Un grand bravo à toi !

Hi Kevin, this little one is making such a cascade... which you are becoming too in shooting the birds in different aerial cascades! Wow, for someone who has not done it often, you are capturing these birds with grace, ability, technical swiftness, I am impressed! Another photo which is great with lighting, composition, sharpness... thanks, Kevin,

Hello Kevin,
Again such a fantastic shot of the flying Chickadee. I'm even more surprised, since I had a look at your Exif data and I see that you didn't use a tripod. A great bravo for this very fine and subtle composition.

Hi Kevin,
Congratulations for this fantastic shot
Beautiful posture, superb focus with sharp details, but why a micro Nikkor for such photo? I have never tried a Micro objectif for such moving subject
Kind regards,Albert

Have a Happy New Year !
