Good landing pose with a nice wingspread. Lots of good detail, and a pleasing shade of blue in the water. I'd prefer a bit more room at bottom, and as is I would remove the small element peeking in at LLC (P.S. I see a cloned repeating pattern in that general area too). Some NR to the BG would also be good.

Good light and exposure on the underwings Scott, sharp, and good landing posture. I agree taking a slither from the top, and adding a bit more to the bottom will work, and a touch of NR wont harm this.

Great wing pose, light, exposure and BG. I agree with Stuart on a little NR.
