    Dear Frank,

    wow, amazing picture! The only thing I would criticize is that it's not my picture . I love the smooth transition in the background, the reflection is amazing and the action was perfect, the high shutter speed makes the splashes crisp like the entire picture is in great focus.
    Perfect picture, glueckwunsch (congratulations).

    Hi Frank,
    I enjoy your image, I like the action and how you have included the BG/reflection. Love the clear eye on the "runaway" and wish we could see more eye and specifics from the aggressor. Anything in the next frame(s)? TFS

    Wonderful action cutting through the glass smooth water. Like the wing positions, reflections of both and the splashes/drops of water just right. One of the more remarkable transitions from water surface graduating into the beautiful tones of the BG. Well done.

    Wow that is visually stunning image with lots of lines and shapes to admire. I like the pano comp, the reflection, BG. The only thing that could have made it better is, as Ann mentioned, a better view of the back bird's face. Certainly not a deal breaker by any means. Great stuff.

    Hi Frank, excellent light and IQ, and both nice and sharp. I like the different wing positions, and you have come away with perfect reflections too. That two tone BG is a killer.

    Quite lovely. The splashes are great but I wish that the face of the rear bird were not obscured... a

    Love this frame. The light, behavior and reflection are amazing. The rear bird's face being obscure doesn't bother me b/c the front one is so visible.
