Sweet image, Sandy. Excellent to catch it and stop the action-my itch images always end up with a blurred foot.

Love the huge foot up here Sandy, comp is pretty centered you could take some off the left or try a vertical.

Great capture, Sandy. Nice work on the whites. If it were mine, I might make it a bit less centered.

Pretty good details, Sandy.
If this were mine, I would remove some space on the left.
