Hello Lidia
Nice in-flight shot.The water wave BG is really wonderful
Perhaps a little more lighting could have highlighted its wings.
I would have loved to read some notes too.
Posting a WS just to see another style of presentation .Hope u like it too.
TFS & Cheers

Hi Lidia,
The blue water in this photo is such an outstanding shade! Excellent focus of inflight bird. The colors are a bit dark and the crop is extremely tight (but then I don't know what you had to work with in your original photo). I think the close crop worked well on you beautiful leopard photo, but for moving subjects such as this it's good to leave them a "place to go." My preference would be to add about an inch at feet and about two inches in front of it.
