Great angle and I always love it when a wing tip touches the water. Very nice.

Great shot!!! Love the tip touching the water and the banking pose. The dynamics of the water flow texture adds to the impact. I think a broader crop allowing a little more space to each side could have been done as the frame seems a little tight for me. Either way, capturing these flying bullets in a perfect pose is a real challenge and you have done it perfectly.

Beautiful image, Debapratim. You nailed the focus perfectly and the eye contact, flight pose and wing tip touching the water are great. You might add just a touch more canvas on the right , if you have it, but it's certainly not a deal breaker.

An outstanding catch, with that wing tip touching the water and excellent focus on the bird, Debapratim.

This is really nice Debapratim. I really like the wing position and the tip touching the water. Beautiful.
