[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Visited the birds park "Avifauna" in Holland. Beside some very nice birds, which were held in cages, there were also shows with birds flying outside. Meat was thrown into the air and they attacked it and caught the meat while flying.

I think this is one of the best pictures I made that afternoon. I’m learning more and more about photography but I still think that one of the most difficult things is getting sharp pictures of moving objects/animals. At least for me ?.

Any advice/comment is welcome.

Excellent flight shot. The only advice I'd offer is to clone out the aircraft contrails and put a name to your bird - Black Kite Milvus migrans - and some notes about it.
Regards, Nigel.

Hello Kim

Sorry for the quick critique. Running out of time tonight. Lovely shot. Well composed. Very good colours, sharpness and detail. Well done. Thanks.

Good in-flight shot. Good sharpness and composition.

Hi Kim,
This is a great inflght shot aof this powerful bird.
The details and exposure are spot on.
Very nice colours and good POV. IMO you could cut some space to the right, but it's still a great picture.
Very well done.

Hele mooie scherpe foto!
Niets op aan te merken. Prachtige foto van deze zwarte wouw!
