It looks like you had a great day with this guy. Love the pose. He looks like he is doing that exercise (can't think of the name of it) and is balancing to strike the pose. Good focus. Nice background blur. Nice composition and good impact. Sounds like it was pretty cold. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you very much! Yes it was cold, with a little wind. It was worth it, I got so many different shots of this guy performing. I have one of him catching a big fish. I will post it in time.

Love the capture. The story telling is great walking on thin ice.Lighting is good. Sun coming to the left bringing out the yellow on it's beak. Rules of thirds is good.like the way you off centered. Did you use a tripod? Focus is off a bit around it's neck. Thanks for sharing.Lou

Initial Impact: It looked like it was dance and he was from sinking fast. Lighting: is very good. Walking a thin line presentation. Color harmony: good. Center of interest: those feet. Cropping: good. You left nice room in front of the bird.
Focus: good. Action: Nothing.
Story telling is in the Title and Artist's notes.
Comments: Good story and composition.

Awesome shot. Details are sharp. It almost looks like he is trying to keep his balance by extending his wings.
