Well posed, I like the head angle and reflection. The half-opened wings add some intrest to the photo and the fish is a big plus. I might add a littlle more contrast. Good job.

Overall a very effective image, great moment and further enhanced by the eye contact. Perhaps slightly more mid-tone contrast would make the image "pop" more.

Thanks everyone...I agree about a bit more contrast. Quite easily remedied! Yes Denise, we had a very successful trip. I'm still going through my images and culling.
Hope your doing great!!
