Good capture, everything comes together well, the background and detail of the birds. Good job author!

thanks ctbugan
Appreciate your comment

Lovely shot

thank you friiskiwi

very nice

thanks lincemiope

This is a rather good photo, so how is one to vote for it?

The lighting of the feathers is enchanting, with the tail illumination doing a wonderful job of separating bird and trees. It came out fine, really!

@Jerostone & MossyB: In my opinion, I classify this image as an orphan due to "not so sharp" bird image especially with the head. In order to make it a good photo, I assume that the bird must be in focus wholly. I do appreciate your kind feedbacks and I will leave this image to the moderator to decide Thanks a lot

I too have tossed many shots like this. Right there but just does not POP for prints, but again hard to delete.
IMO the tree is ok but i do feel your pain.
Good luck Author.

Great photo, I can almost hear the flag snapping in the wind!

haha =D i was hearing it while taking the shot

nice... but needed to have him take a step or two away from the brown sign

thank you! Please note the image more closely ... the child away from the monument is brown, the perspective in the image may be fooling your eyes
