I like the light exposure and setting and a nice behavior captured. I think its an optical illusion but maybe a slight CW rotation would help here? TFS
Great action and behavior shot and loved the splash too. I was wondering maybe having the bird a bit more to the left of the frame might help with the composition.
Cheers
I would normally prefer a lower angle but I think the slightly higher vantage point works OK here. I'd likely lose the whites spots on the forehead if mine, but I like the remaining flying water drops.
Pretty nice bathing capture here. Whites look good but I think the blacks of the head could use some more details. Also I think it would help to have the bird a little more parallel to the back of the camera. May just be a personal thing but I like these shots with the bird more parallel or alternatively facing directly at us.
