Good detail and contrast!

nicely captured. Decent detail in the wings, and I like your choice of black and white.

sorry but your shot does not appeal to me...the background is to dark and the bird is flying away...not really interesting...sorry

A very good capture of the bird in flight.

Unusual angle to see this dove in full flight with a view from above.

Wonderful flying white dove against the dark background.

Great composition and body position. The dark background has great texture too.

Interesting contrast. Not sure I like the dark spots on the wings - can you bleach the bird next time before taking the shot? ;-p The background looks like water with the bottom still visible.

Looks like it could be a frame from a movie reel.

amazing tones on the bird. it looks like it's already been stuffed.
Post actions
interesting capture, image needs to have more impact to really score well. Capturing the full spread of the wings is nice but the overall position of the bird is not too good.
Post actions
Nice action, nature shot.
Post actions
motion blur used effectively. Could be a little sharper, though
Post actions
I like the slight sense of motion in the wing tips
Post actions
Great capture! love the details in the feathers.
Post actions
High contrast really focuses me on the subject. Nice definition of the bird's feathers and form.

I like how everything seems pretty clear except the tips of the wings, that's such a cool thing in bird shots. The white looks great against the dark background.

Tough to capture a really sharp shot...

It had been a long day on the job and Frank leaped into the air, flapping with all his might. It was time to head home to Mary and the kids. Even after all these years at his job, he still got some odd looks from people who were not used to seeing a bird working as an auto mechanic.

I wish there was a bit more "pop" to this wonderful image. Seems a bit drab.
Post actions
Or is it descent? There's a primal ambiguity here. The richness of the ground is nearly hypnotic, strangely enough. Excellent image.
Post actions
A little to bland of a background for me but nice tones and detail on the bird.
Post actions
Good capture and handling of the background.
Post actions
Good composition, the b/w works well here.
Post actions
Good pic but a bit too dark.
Post actions
love to see this in color
Post actions
You captured this well. Nice focus.
Post actions
I'm seeing so many wonderful bird shots of late. This is no different, you lifts my spirits.
Post actions
a little dark background takes away from the image. good focus on the dove though, and well composed shot
Post actions
Good placement of the subject.
Post actions

seems to be well focused, so why not crop closer? the surrounding ground is of no interest
Post actions
Nice capture of the essence of the bird in your simple black and white. Nice.
Post actions
nice get birds are hard to capture at the best of times
