Greetings. The pose and color contrast (especially the water reflections) are appealing. The whites carry a fair amount of red (a small amount is 255 in red), you may want to wb this a dash cooler. I think some background cleanup is in order (white spots). Nice eye contact.
I like the pose.....reminds me of a kid caught with his hand in the cookie jar....:) Colors, sharpness and HA are fine for me. Maybe take a tad off the top and would like a little more canva on the bottom.
Thanks, folks. Bill, I have canvas available on the bottom, but if I include that you get the reflection which I've been taught by some people here to generally avoid. Michael, I think those reds are from the character of the light at sunrise, but I will play with it and see how it looks.
I like this as presented Ian. Needs a slight CCW rotation (water gives it away). Lovely colour and light and superb action. The bird is sharp but a bit more sharpening would be icing on the cake.
