Welcome to DPC - image is small, please see the tutorial "Using Photoshop to Prepare Photos for DPC Challenges." Better lighting would help the levels, so that detail in some areas isn't so "blown out." Computer over right shoulder is distracting. Also read up on "rule of thirds" for less-central and more interesting composition.

Nice capture. Wings are blown out, but focus, color, and profile of wings are all good, wing-tips touching water is special.

Nice action shot, wing position, fish in claws. A little more crop would be better. Very nice.

"When you're a bird, the whole world is your bathroom!" Nice flight shot, color, timing, even interesting background. Good thing it wasn't directly overhead.

Nice delicate feeling, good sharpness, DOF, composition. Maybe a touch more saturation would help? I like it a lot.

Wonderful combination of flora and fauna, good colors, shapes, sharpness, DOF, and composition. I especially like the curves of the wings, wing position, feathers, and lilly pads.

Amazing sharpness and feather and eye detail. Background is a little distracting, but gives a tropical feel. Very nice.
