Nice POV, exposure on the whites, IQ and HA.
The image seems to have a slight cyan cast but I know that the water color can sometimes appear this way in certain conditions- will trust your assessment of this.
I would crop this as a pano by coming in from the top to just above the top droplet.
That would really highlight the head and the prey.

I like the head turn, crawfish, and water drops. I agree that theres a bit too much room above, so another vote for a pano crop. Ripples in the BG are cool. TFS

Very nice John. I here what Gail is saying about the cyan cast. I see a very slight cast, but I think it adds to the image. Lovely detail and I like the HA.
