Mousam, this is an action-packed take off shot. Good pose with the wings up coming out of the splashing water, and very good detail. Since there is quite a bit of bright splashing water, I would be tempted to crop some of it off of the left margin (about where the "V" in the water is located). This would move the duck off center and make it appear it has more space to fly into. Great work.

Thanks Sir, definitely I will crop it as per your advice.

Great action shot. I really like these types of images and the challenge of reacting the moment. Ducks around here often raise their head tall to look, just before exploding into flight. You probably know that clue.
