Beautiful capture! You managed to freeze the action just enough to get a perfectly sharp face and eye while still keeping motion blur in the wings. This creates an interesting image that gives the viewer a sense of speed. Nice color and contrast too

Very nice catch! This image of the small bird is perfectly sharp with nice contrast and a background that compliments the colors of the bird nicely. The small bug in the beak of the bird adds a story to the image which is always a plus

Congratulations on a technically very difficult shot! You managed to freeze the action completely in a very sharp and colorful image. I would personally have given a little more space in front of the bird when cropping but that’s personal preference. Well done!

Congratulations on a great capture! Nice frozen action, beautiful sharpness and great colors. The photo is taken at eye level with the bird adding to the overall pleasing look of the image. Editing is very nicely done and you created an image that pops without being too much.

Very nice capture! Nice frozen action and eye focus. Your image could benefit from a slight straightening in order to bring the water line completely horizontal but overall well framed and interesting photo taken at water level / eye level.
