Well I might feel obliged to say I liked it even better even if I didn't, but fortunately I don't have to face that moral dilemma as I do like it even better. Yes, it is a bit tight but I can definitely live with that. I'm tempted to say try it a bit darker just for something to say, but the truth is I really like the colours as they are. The green is beautiful. Great shot and even the tail is just where you'd want it.
Love the sense of movement here. Like seeing the teeth, the splash, the raised tail with 3 legs off the ground. Would have liked a tad more room on top but works as is.
It's a tad tight at the top as mentioned, but I know how tough it is getting shots like this "in the frame" at close range, and frankly it doesn't really bother me or draw my attention from the dynamic action and the effect of the slight motion blur on the front paws.
I would play around with taking down the brightest tones a tad, just to add more pop and contrast.
