    I have added some canvas at the front. I should add a bit more I think.

    All C&C welcome

    I agree with adding a bit more canvas...It would make an already strong image even stronger!

    Hi Kaus, these take off images with splashes are difficult to compose, as we want to leave the splash, and when they have taken off, they are half way across the frame. Yes adding canvas will help, and maybe try and crop as close to the splash as possible to bring him back a bit. Well timed, and love the take off posture with the raised wings. The BG works well too.

    Hey Kaustubh,
    I agree with your self assesment on the more room and I also like Stuarts idea of tightening up the back......always a delimma on takeoff. I think the BG adds a ton to the overall appeal of the image. Very nicely done!

    Kaustubh, I love the splash and the colors of the water and the reeds are nice. I agree w/ you regarding more space. Nicely done.:)

    As Stu said its always difficult to get a good composition when including the splash. You did well here and I also agree with a tad more canvas.
