    Giovanni, nice job with the capture - I am there with the catch of the fish and the escape from the water! Unfortunately the light was not your friend for this one, as the lighting is flat and left you wanting in the color department. Your self-assessment is quite good and I hope you get more opportunities to capture this bird. Keep them coming!

    You did a nice job getting this action nice and sharp. Great splash and it's nice that you can see the catch. INteresting that your bird is banded which also adds interest. If you have a little more space on the left, I think I would give this a little more space for that left sing and maybe take some off of the bottom going for a little bit of a pano style.

    You have what looks like a slight yellow cast in your water although probably not the bird. Here is what I would suggest. Use the Quick Selection Took and select the bird. Control+Shift+I for (inverse) so that you can work on the water only. Then do a Color Balance adjustment layer and move the slider away from the yellow and toward the blue. Watch the colors of the water change (you don't have to add much), and I think you will see that the image is much better without the cast.
