Here we go with some airborne shots of the boys in the air flying Image 3 is a blow up of image 4, the original. I was using an 800mm to shoot 4 and of course it was on a tripod. Estimated distance, 150 yards? Think there's pretty good clarity in 3. Hope you like them

#2 is unique. I have never seen that pose? before. Really a great shot with the clarity and the feathers in the wing and the eyes. That is a wall hanger!

Robin, hope you don't mind but I really like number 2 but it is a bit dark... I opened the shadows in ps...

If you take the time you could also clone out the distracting bright spots.

Well Moxie thanks for having a go at it. On my monitor they look a bit washed out. Appreciate the tip on doing away with the snow patches. I'll have to give it a try. Thanks for looking and adjusting. Cheers

Hmmmm... we must have vastly different monitors..... yours appears extremely dark on my monitor.... but it's good to know that my monitor may be the problem.

Here's a quick attempt to clone out the white spots done very quickly, It can be improved I also darkened your sample to the lightest I could accept. Thanks again for your comments

Robin, you did well in taking out the distracting bright spots.... and apparently our monitors are poles apart in brightness because your revision is dark on my monitor... so mine must be the problem. Thanks!
