Blast off, indeed. Amazing flight position with wings up, and the water drops below tell the story. Excellent.

Wow, this must be a difficult image to acchive so I'm mighty impressed. Great wing position, setting and exposure. No nits here but I would ike to move the bird to the left just slighly to create some room for the bird to "fly in to".

Wow, what a treat to view this photo.

To my eye, this appears to want about one degree or so of CW rotation.
