    Hey John - I like the use of the breaking wave as a dark green background. The color on the bird is great. Maybe it's my eyes, but this image doesn't seem to be as sharp on the birds' eye as some of your other shots.

    John - I like the pose and the subtle blue water color but I believe your lens may have had spray or dust on it. I can see many small spots across the entire image.

    Nice low angle, good details, great colours. I love the fresh feathers coming out below the shoulder and down in the front of the wing. The spray was obviously there in the scene, but I am wondering what caused it.
