Constructive criticism (& any other comments) most welcome. Don't hold back!

#1: A few quite large parts of the image look blown out (although I've not checked to see if this is really the case).

#2: Eyes don't quite seem in focus (the focus point seems to be on the body somewhere).

#3: Struggling to find the area of focus. Composition is a little static (horizontal flying thing is probably why).

#4: Now we're talking, although it still looks a little static.

#5: My favourite by a mile. Real sense of movement. Would be better if focus point was slightly more towards eyes.

To be fair, all five images are better than anything I have to show , so well done!

Number 5 is a great shot the angle of the subject is what makes it.

5 for me as well.... love the colours

Pretty much agree with other comments. #1 and #2, the focus is seems off. On the remaining 3 the technique is spot on, And it all comes together in #5 where there is some modelling with the subject being on an angle, and a good view of the wings.

Thanks, everyone.
The standard of critique here has, to my mind, never been in question!
