Beautiful bird and great capture! I really like not only the fact you have frozen flight and caught the detail but the position of the wings at the time of the capture is great! Well done.

Catching a KF in flight this way is something thousands of us aspire but extremely few in fact realise the dream.
You have done marvelously well with this capture. Stunningly taken and with a background to die for.
