    Nice to see this species. I like the flight position, and the layered BG. And the two water drops. I'm wondering if just a tiny bit of Nik DE would bring out a little fine detail?

    Always nice to get a spoonie in flight, but I personally wish it weren't merged with the BG. Like those extended feet and the water drops.
