Nice timing Karl! I like the "hole" in the water that she made.

Nice timing. Karl. How are you getting so close to these guys?? Not many left around my local spots - the ones that are, are quick to swim away pretty quick. Cheers.

A very interesting and unique diving pose, Karl. Your timing was perfect to catch the head going under and the body coming up out of the water for the dive. It is refreshing to see a different style of image like this. Excellent work!

Nice diving shot Karl. Nice water cavitation behind the bird.

You caught it at just the right moment so the eye is showing. You also caught the deep depression in the water resulting from the downward force of the tail. All of this on a very sharp and well-exposed image.
