Great reflection and composition. What's this 'sun' thing you refer to? Not come across that before ..

A cracker. Love the water spray and reflection. They sure went at some speed. I'm sure you were deliberately distracting me so I would miss this shot ............. which I did :argue:

Great action. Would perhaps crop a little from the left, say just up to the start of the big splash.

Hi Ian, nice capture. I do not know if it is my eyes or what but I see the Pic. was taken at 1/100 sec and I feel you have not killed it dead. Just my opinion. :toast:

Excellent capture Ian, I tried for a shot like this last week but didn't manage it.
