Very nice, Jagdeep, especially with all that water splash. I think you have nailed the tech here. Very nice pose, very nice light, so much action, too. I am just wondering if the sharpening could be backed down just a little bit.
Pretty cool wing position here. Amazing splash. Excellent color and exposure. On very close inspection of the large image it appears that the head and neck is a tiny bit soft or this could be a motion blur; the wings are exceedingly sharp and at F5, he might have missed the head a bit. I still like the image quite a bit.
The splash and the wing positions make this image for me, Jagdeep. Some of the whites look a little hot, but in this kind of image I don’t find that to be a significant issue.
Love all the flying water and the bird’s pose, Jagdeep.
