I like the bubbly water action and low angle on the Willet -- the water looks kind of ugly on the border under his feet -- maybe a different crop or stamping can defuse the foreground blur

I like how the wave frames the Willet. Nice soft light and wish the part of the wave merging with his bill was not there. TFS.

Roger, the lighting and action in this image is lovely. Nice angle on the bird and the water really draws my eye and keeps it there. Very nice!

[Roger Williams]

Thanks for the comments. I agree with Scott about maybe cropping out the bottom-most bubbles which are a little funky.

[Don Anderson]

I might take a little off the bottom, but overall this is a really nice
capture, nice light, interesting water, might clone out the light part
of the wave hitting bottom of the bill.

Nice capture with nice light
