    OUCH! Great behavioral capture. Good action, wing position and lovely water. Love the wincing expression on the lower bird.

    Cool behavior image all the way around and like Bill, I really love the pained expression on the lower bird.

    I'd be tempted to tone down the whites a tad on the lower bird and clone out the debris in the lower right.

    Love that expression as it tells the story well :)

    What an awesome tale this capture tells! Love that expression on the bottom bird. Whites look good on my monitor. Agree about cloning out the debris in front right and would also clone the spots left of the top bird.

    Nicely done!!!

    Neat action, and the expressions are priceless! Although the whites are not blown I too would be tempted to tone down those on the lower bird. I also agree about removing the OOF debris in LRC. I love the slight water action below the bill, very neat.
