I like the low angle too. Neat bird, and the water around the legs is pretty neat. personally I would have preferred a higher wing position, but I can understand if it did not give you that option.
Beautiful bird that works really well in that colored water. I like the raised wings but agree it would be even cooler if they were raised more. I like the green line on the top of the frame. I would brighten the whole image and warm it up a bit as well.
