Wow, that is a really big meal! Light is soft and nice and the angle is very good. I like the timing but the composition is not the best to my taste. Too much empty room in the upper area of the frame and the the interest of the image is on the bird´s head. Maybe a panoramic crop woukd work on this image. :-)

Agree with Juan Would like seeing the complete wake left by the bird behind and some room up front. Excellent head angle !!!

Thanks. Good comments. I had originally looked at a pano and changed my mind. Second guessed myself. Dave

I love the COMP as is. The water is amazing and so is the pose. The head angle is great and you processed this one much better than the one that you posted after this--the contrast is much greater and the colors richer. I am assuming that they were taken in the same light just minutes apart.

Thanks for looking Artie and taking time to comment. It is very interesting how 4 people can look at the same photo and have different preferences for aspects of the composition, particularly the size/cropping. Dave

Agree. But you and I are on the same page. :) :) :) Not sure if I have ever seen this COMP, but it works exceedingly well for me with this pose, subject, ad BKGR. Not quite sure why though....
