This is a really sweet catch and perspective. The action, reflection and splash makes this a very captivating image.

Awesome!!  Not sure about this crop, though. I see you went for full reflection of the wing, but I don't think it's necessary since the reflection isn't all that symmetrical. On something like this, I like a 1:2 aspect ratio better, which chops off more of the bottom, putting the head/eye of the loon in bottom left third and still keeping all that important water action
