Great Egret Splash

I caught this Great Egret as it made an attempt at a fish, which it caught. I posted this image because I really liked the numerous water droplets that exploded from the water. Comments and critiques welcome.

Nice capture, Jerry. I like that the egret is pointed our way and the ring of droplets is so well frozen in space. Exposure looks fine to me too: it's so easy to blow the whites for these birds.
