Great details on the bird and the whites. Wish for a little more head angle or eye contact. Unfortunate the dark band of the water through the middle of the bird.TFS

[David Roach]

Ditto Kevins remarks... Love the wings... TFS

[John Mack]

The take off is great. Like the water drops and how the bird is just above the water. Light is what it is. Don't mind the background.

[Paul Burdett]

A dynamic shot Krishna. I'm ok with the BG too, but perhaps a little more room on top for me. TFS

[Bill Dix]

Nice capture of the moment after takeoff. I like the band of water in the bg; think it adds interest. HA also ok with me.

Well captured, I like the background and the water drops flying.

Thank you all for the comments.

I like dark band of water, it does not bother me as it is soft with no hard edges.
