Superb color, detail, and light. I like the birds activity. The texture of the splash is wonderful in the larger image.

Nice one! I like all the action in the water, and how well the bright colors show up on the Oystercatcher.

The waves really make this image, Chuck. The Oystercatcher is a nice touch too.

Excellent capture Chuck. Love the suspended water drops and the wave action on this. It's a great look at the Oystercatcher, nice feather detail.
