    Wonderful takeoff shot, Vivaldo. I can understand the interest in keeping the shadow on the rock, and all of the great water drops; but I'd be tempted to try a version cropped tighter to focus more on the great looking bird.

    Excellent frame. The bird is perfect, and the splash and shadow add a lot of visual interest to the image. Well done!
