Hi Fernando,

Lovely low angle. I would clone out the darks in the FG. I like the wings and action.

What did you do to scare this bird? LOL, just kidding! Great action with the extension of the talons perfectly shown. I agree the OOF dark FG items are distracting., but I love the expression on the face and the swept back feathers (hair) on the head.

Great action shot....I love that low angle and both feet out of the water.
Congrats !

Very dynamic image. Dark in foreground does not bother me, only wish he had turned his face a tiny bit, looking over his shoulder.

Very nice, congratulations!

I like this image a lot! The action and the low angle is very good. The waterdrops add to it and what I really love is the water behind the right foot!
Very balanced composition. I agree withe the idea of cleaning the foreground from the darks.
