I liked that both wing tips were skimming the water. Also like those beautiful green eyes. Processed using Lightroom CC (2015) and Photoshop CC (2017) along with Light Craft's LightZone. Comments and critiques welcome.

I, too, really like the wing tips just touching and one dragging a bit of water. However, it may be my old eyes or my monitor, but it seems that it is a bit soft especially knowing how sharp your images always and all ways are.

That dragging wingtip is great! Head and that beautiful aqua eye are very sharp, and the slight softness of the body doesn't bother me a bit.
Fine work!

Hey Jerry,
This is a beauty, nice action and you had a perfect position for the shot. The large version is impressive and seems very sharp to my old eyes.
Well Done . . . devil
