Dottie and I ran the gauntlet of I-4, I-75, and I-275 to get to Ft. De Soto yesterday morning. It's like being in a Nascar race for an hour and a half without the benefit of having the best drivers running a few feet away while doing stupid things. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Like the composition here good exposure like the water splash as well. Wish the wings were more in a flat position.

Like the pose and splash. I always think this wing position is cool -- kinda like a conductor. I like the side eye contact and clear view of the feet. Detail looks good throughout. Some of the blacks on the chest could maybe be raised just a bit but I'm really not that familiar with this bird. TFS

Really nice details on the bird, and I love the pose. Great colour on the water and the splash takes it up a notch. Well done Joe, very nice.
