    I like how the bird is running across the water. The water drops add interest.

    Jonathan, great looking action shot with nice details and wing position to bad the HA wasn't better but that can't be helped. Very nice.

    Very nice Jon, not easy from a boat. I love the pose. The reflection adds.

    Excellent water takeoff, Jonathan. Nice wing, feet positions with water splash and droplets surrounding the Guillemot.

    Dynamic take off pose, exposure looks spot on. It appears that these birds like Coots run on the water to take off. Thank you for sharing, Jon.
