As with all bath shots I like the water droplets. I have never seen this duck but I like the striped face. Wish for a higher SS for sharper water droplets. Nice crop,

Nice light and low angle. I quite like the blurred/streaky droplets in this one :t3

Fantastic shot. I really like all the water drops, great action captured, and nice shooting angle.
Well done.

Another coloured flying droplet image from you Tom. :w3 Once again nice and sharp, and I like the hint of green from the wing. Cool low perspective too.

Lovely low angle and excellent exposure. However, duck looks sharpened but not sharp to me due to motion blur. I think SS was a bit low for the action and focal length.

yes I think you are right about the SS.

Fantastic waterworks Tom - a shower of skittles! Nice action and comp. I find the head of the bird a bit too bright.
