Nice stop action. The color of the sky is just a bit off.

Pigeon as predator. Interesting idea. Need some harder sharpening on the head and feather texture to give it some punch.

Great shot, and lots of patience! I hope I'm not too harsh as this photo must have been hard to take and I'm nowhere near this level yet; but it's a pity the focus is a bit off.

Great capture, unfortunatly would look better if the wings were in a more outspread position. The background really makes him stand out

I love this very distinctive shot. The wings have been caught at a critical moment.

I don't think I've ever seen a banded pigeon before. Would be interesting to find out why anyone would band a pigeon! Nice in flight catch. I think I may have preferred this one in B&W (mostly because I prefer nearly everything in B&W) since the pale aqua seems just a tad off against the gray of DPC.
