    Awesome shot! I love this! The way you've frozen the movement of the bird and the water is marvelous.

    What a big splash indeed, the splash took the entire frame. This is an excellent shot in B&W.

    Love the way the bird is almost off the page. Engaging composition.

    Did a melanoma check this year while having three bothersome, small places removed. Nothing malignant. Feels GREAT knowing. Was a little shocked to the price tag for in-office removal of skin tags and melanoma check. Close to $600. Took about 5-10 minutes. Thanks for reminding us of Melanoma Monday.
