I really like this Randy, great action shot with great colors and detail.
It might be just me, but it looks like might try just a little ccw rotation. Might be just a little down hill.
Otherwise, beautiful. :toast:

Nice action Randy, the flying water droplets really tell the story of what's going on here. I like your low angle also.

Very nice action Randy. I like your low angle and the flying water droplets. Agree with the comments on CCW rotation, it won't need very much of an adjustment.
