    Excellent image.Great pose captured.Superb details.I like the cute little one with feather.Very nice water with lovely ripples.
    Would love to see in panorama-crop composition with some more space on the left ( if you have) and some crop at bottom.

    Wonderful behavior capture. Might try dodging the little one's face to bring it out more? Does it need a CW rotation or is it just a trick of the water?

    Nice behaviour, and a tender moment too. It does indeed need some CW rotation, and I like Satish's comp suggestion. I'd also try to negate the bluish cast on the chick's plumage and the adult's back. Love the texture and colour of the water!

    I like the interaction, feather, exposure and water colour. I agree with CW rotation. Well done Frank.
