Great shot-- very emotive to me-- the centered framing works well for this one-- 10

One of few bird pictures I rated this high. I really like the angle from which this was taken.

Nice angle which the wings create. I do spot a bit of noise in the picture though.

Amazing composition, given the moving target and difficult platform. Is this an aerial photo?

I like the composition and viewpoint. It's a little noisy, although this may add to the atmosphere.

Interesting view. I like the spread of the tail feathers. I'm seeing some "odd" darkness on the right side and lower left...was this due to some viginetting?

I like the clean symetry of this shot. It takes the bird out of the animal kingdom and into the abstract. The shading of the sky around it is wonderful. 8

A little too grainy and tightly cropped, but the perspective is amazing.

wonderful capture, but it seems a tad grainy.

I like the position of the bird - the splayed tail feathers, gray lines on wings streatching to the black tips. Nice nutral background - wish the bird stood out a bit more - a little more contrast?

Great point of view! I know this is very hard to do, but with more sharpness, this would be just awesome.

Like this composition and color. Full of noise and a bit oof. [?] Windy day or just the camera. I do believe you have captured the very heart of the challenge. It's good shot despite a few minor flaws.

nice composition though a bit grainy

I love the near-prefect symmetry, the grey-blue tones, teh softness of the feathers. I think the darker sky on the right is perhaps a little distracting--maybe if the sky held the same symmetry as the bird? I dunno. I guess I'd have to see what that would look like to compare before I say for sure if that would improve an already terrific shot. Can't give you a vote, but if I could it'd be a 10. Good luck!
