Hi Anghel.
Great timing and quick reflexes to have this shot done.
Excellent the pose and details got on the bird's plumage, we can see and appreciate the patterns on it.
Well done and thanks for share.
Best regards,
JM

hello Anghel

How lucky to have a bird flying over and you are ready to shoot! Even if the focus is just a little soft, but you captured the flight very nicely with full stretched wings and very elegant pose. I know holding camera and heavy lens up into the air to shoot is not easy to get very high sharpness. Using a tripod will lose the subject!

So I think you have done very well here. I would have missed or cause blur picture :)

tfs, bill
