Ouch!! Fantastic capture. I wonder how many of them lose an eye? I might crop the bright bit of water off the bottom.

an excellent action shot, nicely captured. I think I agree about cropping the bottom stripe of bright water, but no other nits from me.

Nice action shot Phillip, one thing, is it me or does it need a CW rotation the water seems to slope?
