    I'm having a fun rediscovering old skimmer shots that I never processed, here's one more.
    I still have a few more to go through.

    Thanks for looking.

    What a gem! Super timing and excellent focus, love it! The eye really makes me look critically, I laso like the trailing feet and of course the water droplets.
    You make me feel like doing some rummaging around but I am pretty sure I wouldn't come up with something like this!

    Great head on pose. Like the water trail and the pano crop.

    Definitely the best of the series. Really nice lighting and even more important, really nice light angle. Everything is lit well and the eye and head look great. Nice skimming action also in not too rough of water. I haven't looked at a bunch of stuff that I shot a week ago but I'm hoping I got one this nice in there. Well done Tim.

    Yes, Tim, I agree with the others; really excellent image. And I love the caustics under the wings.
