I took this shot earlier this morning at Don Edwards SF Bay National Wildlife Refuge.

40D, EF 70-200 F4L, 1.4X TC @268mm
1/2000 sec, f/8, ISO 400, Exp comp -2/3

I have been undecided on the cropping... This is almost full frame; added a bit of canvas in the front.
Your comments and feedback would be appreciated.

It's wonderful! I like the wing position and blue water background. I do think it is a little tight though. :)

Exposure control, details, wing position and dangling feet look great, it just needs more space, especially top and left.

Thanks. Here is the repost

Your best photo to date Indranil! Perfect exposure and sharpness. Great wing position. Bird is flying towards you. Just needs a bit more room, even more than on the repost. Congrats!

Thank you Doug. Here is an updated post with increased canvas...

I like the last one best.
