    Menno:

    A big welcome to BPN. It is a great place to learn and grow as a nature photographer.

    I like the active pose, drop of water, low shooting angle and exposure.

    Since the reflection isn't strong, I might consider a very small crop, about 20% of the free space beneath the bird.

    Please be sure to include all your camera/lens data and how you did your post processing. It really makes it easier for us to critique the images.

    Again welcome to BPN, look forward to more!

    Cheers

    Randy

    Hi Menno, great to see you here as well!

    Already seen this one, but it is still a very nice image with the low angle and the light.

    Meeno, congrats on your first post. Good low perspective, and I like the feeding pose. I agree with Randy to crop off a touch from the bottom, but I would also maybe take a touch off the top too. Keep them coming.
