If this had more contrast to it I think it would improve. Regardless I think it's a beautiful catch.

Nice capture and the POV feels right for the challenge. The image could use a bump in contrast but otherwise is solid. Just as an added suggestion, maybe try and get more of the sky in the background next time. That would have given this a lot more wow, IMO.
