What a great shot, WOW
and what a great landing.
Well done,

Ben

Una verdadera belleza

Nice capture Toru. Not an easy one to get. The splashing water makes for a dynamic composition.

Excellent shot! A truly great capture. although the photo could do with some PP work. a small crop at the bottom and some cloning to remove the unwanted birds would have been good. The straight shadow line right through the birds chest could also be corrected quite easily. But it's still a fantastic photo!

Another great anticipation from my favorite Kona san, cheers.

Thanks,
Jeffrey

Hi Toru San, good to see you're back too.
You captured the perfect moment, the bird fills the picture and is the star, thank you, Magda, (*_*)

Konnichi wa Toru San !
Nice to see you back on line! Like a big fat cargo plane, this one is landing in a spash coming straight at us (^_^) Impressive shot.

IMHO , an easy cloning of the two swans in the back could have made it even better.Keep on the good work.
Cheers!
