Thank you Mirek. It was cropped and sharpened. Timing was right on and I was actually ready for him to take off.

Excellent shot. I can only imagine how difficult it was to get this photo, as I failed many times at similar attempst. Patience and practice makes perfect, doesn't it? Going back to Your shot I am amazed by the sharpness and detail of this shot, which I guess is the original or close to the original crop. The lines of this dove wings embrace and frame Your subject perfectly. Timing couldn't be better. Cheers, You will get a 7 from me for this one. There is really nothing in my mind to complain about this photo.

Hey, thanks Doyle...
It was one of those situations where I knew if I took one more step forward this beauty would take off. So, I got in postiion and took a step or two and, whsssssssssh.

Excellent Rick!! Generally, the first one to three in the shutter burst come out best (for me).....nice and fast to get this and the overlapping wings are a treat. Interesting shutterspeed. :)

This another unique shot of birds in flight.The wings seemt o eb embracing th ewind:).Judging form the blur effect it looks like it was moving so fast yet still captured by your quickness and alertness.Well done!
