Is this a composite: No

Here’s a black and white version just for grins:
Both are very effective! I wonder about going max contrast as in just black and white.
Lovely action and composition, Allen. I think I prefer the color version, though the black and white is interesting. Ronald’s idea of more contrast is interesting. I’m not sure I’d go stark black and white, but a bit more might be fun.
Hi Allen,
You have managed to capture some interesting birds doing what they do best. The color version is better and I would bump up the brightness slightly before printing. Awesome…Jim
Allen, the flying splash and the full reflection look very good. A fine action catch.
The splash really makes this work for me. It is a dynamic pose with superb action. I think you did a great job on the exposure.
Lovely action captured - you pressed the at the right moment ! Did you lighten the shows in post-processing? There seem to be some noise in there, maybe due to that. Anyway, lovely shot and I love the splash ! Cheers, Hans
