Daring composition, Milo, and the wake behind him justifies your choice here. There is something going on behind the bird's back.
Lovely eye and I know your ethics committee will no go for cloning the shine around it ;)

I like the angle and periscope sticking out. :) The composition works for me but I would crop a bit off the top.

It works for me. I like the appearance of the bird....there's detail and yet a satiny look. Fabs mentioned the shine.
