Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
This takes skill to capture a stunning shot like this. Sharply focused, correct use of Natural light, white balance control and Fast shutter speed with a low f/stop. I will REPEAT myself daily in Reviews that wildlife Photography, especially birds requires HIGH SHUTTER LOW F/STOP. Many shoot birds in Apeture because they need the light.. sacrificing speed. Your manual settings and knowledge of Kelvin Scale shine through here Greenie.
This is a stellar once in a lifetime kind of shot.
Outstanding work worth far more than 6 stars.
Bravo!

What a delightful pic of the bird in flight. He looks happy taking off. You have timed it well. The colours, light and shadows and the composition have worked well. Thanks for sharing!

Glorious flight with a one sided-illumination.
Dynamic still motion capture!

Dramatic interplay between lights & shades casting soft highlights and faint shadows...

Visually soothing & appealing avian delight!

Great framing!
Nice aesthetic blur...

Nice perspective & narrow DOF.

Thanks for sharing...

Comment from Terry Loftus


To capture this movement with such clarity is a great skill. The sky has a softness to it that lends an overall softness to the photo. The wings are so translucent and help to pull the lighter coloring of the sky. This is beautiful

Love the background and the light transmitted through the wings. The bird is well done but the above elevate it much. Nice composition, good lighting, fine elan, etc.

Grace,
A beautiful stop action picture of the House Finch on the wing wings out spread so we could count everyone of it's flight feathers, head turned facing the sun . Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
