The colors and shadow are just a little bit exaggerated but that's what made me look twice and give it a higher mark. I rather like this.

Love the golden light on the water; makes his green markings stand out really well.

Appears to be swimming in liquid gold. Nice colors, here. Nice sharpness on the bird.

From the angle this can't be a 500mm shot, unless the shooter is on top of a rather tall building or hill..

Nice work getting this close.

Oh, and very nice shot too!
