    Captured at the local birding spot.
    I would have preferred the head not to be infront of the wing but like the moment captured.

    very nice Dave, love the landing pose and details. I like how the left foot is touching the water.

    I like the landing pose and angle and wish we could see the underside of the near wing better.

    Pin sharp Dave, and I like the light in this. Good landing posture, and hope you have the next frame with him skiing across the water.

    Cool. I keep looking for the water ski tow rope.;) Great timing to capture this moment.

    It is not sharp, focus is on the feet. I guess that was from the shallow DOF.
    Good try.

    excellent timing and light direction Dave...like how the one foot is touching the water...not often we see images of these blokes in flight.

    Thanks to all for looking and for comments.
    Troy the image was not reposted and I could not work out what you were refering to. Could you please tell me were you think the image is soft. (Not a complaint just a request)

    The first time I looked at it, it was soft.
    Not sure.
    But looking at it again, it is sharp. Must be my eyes. :(
