The water is too bright and white but excellent detail on the subject. Overall a good shot!

Hey, I know how hard it is to catch up with these guys. I tried for this challenge also. Good shot that could have been better had he been facing you or maybe taking off. Good luck.

Crisp and colorful. Too bad his head wasn't turned more for a good profile shot.

Beautiful and graceful subject that was captured very well with excellent detail. DOF is good too, but I don't see this image as having been a challenge to stop the motion.

Very nice stopped motion photo! You might have left a tad more grass on the top when cropping, to show the large size of this bird. Just being picky, well done overall!

the idea was not to have motion blur...not much sense of motion in this image

nice color. I can't vote it high because I don't see much action here or anything that required good timing....
