I too had this marked as 10. Its simple and very effective. The sense of movement and action is terrific. Deserved a higher placing than some of the other 'static' images which placed higher.

Gave this a 10. What an incredible capture. I had this placed a lot higher than 50th.

Well done for capturing this - I feel bad saying that its not quite sharp enough as it must have been going some to hit the water like that so I'm interested to see what your shutter speed was. Great effort.

Awesome capture and the lighting is wonderfull.

This is certainly a once-in-a-lifetime shot. How cool! A few distractions for me are the OOF portions of the gull and the loss of detail due to glare, but overall a great job. The reflection and crop are superb. Very well balanced & composed. I just wish it was a little crisper and a little less glare. Still, overall a real keeper! (8)

Impeccable timing on this one.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Pretty cool moment you caught here, I like the symmetry but still not a jaw dropping shot, I don´t know what it is but there is something missing... Anyway, still gave it a 7, congrats are in order on the perfect timing on this shot.

good shot! would have been nice if your film speed was a bit higher to really capture the image with no blur... you must have good patients though to wait for this photo opp!

Pleasing composition, love the reflection. maybe a faster shutter would have increased the impact.
