The angle certainly is very nice and makes the shot that more appealing.

One fine image. I like the pose of the bird. The details are sharp with good colors. I love the splash. The only thing I might consider changing would be to tone-down or eliminate the light spot on the right hand side and a third of the way down from the top.

I agree with Phil's critique but would add the white on the bird's side is a little harsh for my taste.

Great impact. The stop action is outstanding.

Very nice action captured. Was the birds face really that dark or it is a result of highlights adjustment?

Pin sharp, and well timed for the take off. Overall amazing colours captured in this, and that water is like glass. Congrats Jody, I like this lots.
