      I cheated by adding a bit of canvas infront of the bird. Not much good with PS so hope this looks OK. Comments and Crits welcome.

      This is beautiful Hennie... supe comp and detail... mt nits would be to clone out the two yellow spots in the bg... do selective sharpening on the bird and add just atd of contrast to the image... otherwise VWD!

      Added canvas surely turned this into a good comp. Good pose, colours and a nice catch too.

      Super shot Hennie, timing is spot on !!

      Didn't realize how fast these birds are saw a few for the first time this week-end, but did not manage to get a good shot, they are so quick.

      Lovely image Hennie. Wouldn't have noticed the extra canvas if you didn't mention it!
