I like the action, sharp eye, blur of the wings and tail and water drops. A little tight at the tail. Nice image John.

Thanks Jim
Took a bit off the right to get the head central, and notlooking out of shot.
Cheers

Hi John,

Like the pose, eye contact and sharp drops. Well balanced BG colors and light. TFS.

Cheers,

Hi Jihn, any bathing subject always works well, when one sees the enjoyment from the subject, and flying droplets. As the bird is nearly parallel to you, I may have traded less aperture for more ss.

Lovely image, John. Hope all is well with you. Thank you for sharing.

[John Robinson]

Thanks all.
Trade off really Stu. I went for the blurred water to be honest but always hard to work it out with different sized birds- the bigger the slower !!
Cheers
John
