Interesting to see this muskrat shot. The subject is clear and sharp and the exposure seems good. I like the ripples on the water and the water on the rat's back.
But I feel there is a lot of featureless water as well. So perhaps a tighter crop is the answer.
Hi John - I like the swimming pose with the visible eye and the wake. Agree about going a bit tighter but watch out for too much pixel bashing affecting the IQ.
