Nice image. Some people might say that there is not enough room on the left for the bird to move into but with an image like this you need the trail of water splashes to be prominant. Well caught :toast:

It's a fine image, but a crop to pano (just below the dark veg and just above the lighter reflections) would suit it better than this framing does!

Agree with above-will make a great pano

I think Nigel is spot on too.I wish I could take action shots as good.

Pano suggestion is the way to go but I would still like some more room to the left. Other than that a great action capture.

As above . The action of the bird is spot on , the water is fine , just needs that space on the left.
