The vertical seems strongest to me also. It lets you know the bird is clutching onto a steep slippery rock giving more interest to the scene. And no light spots in the sky. I don’t mind the bird’s tail being in front of the rock. Tail is sharp–rock is blurred so the tail stands out and gives a feeling of depth that might not be there if the bird was all against the water.
Thanks for this idea of reader comment. More learning!
