Vivaldo, what a shot. loved the cleanliness in FG-BG, low angle, the feet out, the water splashes, angle, light...beautifully done. Action shots at such low angle aren't easy. This is quite stunning.
Composition-wise, I'd prefer it a bit lower in the frame and some more room to take off into...some crop from below and canvas on top and right.
Thanks for suggestion Kaustubh, I like it, here is the re-post
Very nice "lift-off" image with the water dripping of the feet. Repost is better, but could still have a bit more room at the top. Wing tips and underneath the wings looks little noisy. Great image.
Hi Vivaldo, your repost works well. Great timing, and I like the trailing water around the legs and feet. Lovely clean water BG. Well captured.
Quite stunning with a great suggestion by KD and an excellent re-post to go with it. I love the sweet light.

Fantastic image! I prefer the original post as I feel composition is more effective. Just a matter of taste really.
Vivaldo, I like the repost but after looking at both, I see a the merit in the OP too. With more room below the bird, it seems to be shot from a lower angle making it a tad more intimate. Eitherway, a great shot.
Stunning image with a great repost.
what lovely calm water and low beautiful light.
Beautiful light, great action and good detail especially the water flowing off the feet. Well captured Vivaldo. I would be happy with either of the posts.
Beautiful image! I like the water splash, action and detail.
The water trailing off the feet makes this one extra special. The blue is of a particularly pleasing shade. Very strong image!
Excellent pose and details, I really like the original as it accentuates the size of this massive bird.

Thanks very much for all comments. I like both version, infact not sure on which one I prefer.
Awesome pose captured Vivaldo beautiful shot.
Vivaldo, another good shot showing what can be done with that teleconverter on the 600mm Nikkor lens. This forum proves its usefulness once again.
