    I was happy to get this low angle take off shot while kneeling in the water.

    This picture made me smile. I love the "running "feet and the water droplets. I also really like the undulating wavelets(is that a word:eek:) Awesome low angle. Love the way the light highlights the eye.

    Alan, another stunning. You are known for your setups but I've found your ultra low angle water bird shots always equally superb.

    Everything is excellent here. What I like the most is that both feet are in the air. That combined with the wrap around wing position makes this quite special. perfect blacks.

    What an image, Alan! Awesome low angle, superb pose and love the feet suspended mid-air.
    The head just peaking out with that prominent white eye is just perfect.
    Amazing IQ and comp as well.
    Your images are never short of spectacular.

    Nice action! Like the wing position and the way the feet are just above the water.
