Very cool. Love the details in the feathers and the expression on the bird.

Nice one, Jim! There's a lot to like here ... nice light, great landing pose with open bill and nice separation between the feet, wonderful BG, excellent detail, etc.

A little tight at the top for me and maybe a bit more room at right and bottom as well.

Beautiful frame, Jim.
I also could see it a bit looser, but the IQ is very nice.

[Morkel Erasmus]

the colours just pop here Jim!
nice timing, pose and exposure

[Miguel Palaviccini]

Wow Jim! Stunning shot. Mike summed it up perfectly for me. Just a bit of room all around for me as well.

The BG is so overpowering that it almost overshadows your limpkin. Great pose on the limpkin and what awesome light you had.

[Karl Egressy]

Nice landing pose against beautiful background, Jim.

[Dan Busby]

I really like that landing pose Jim. And very nice techs and lighting. I find that the background colour and pattern makes it hard to give full attention to the bird.

excellent landing Jim, with golden colors and sharp details!

[Jonathan Ashton]

It takes some doing, hand held in a boat, - well done you have capture the landing and the detail in the bird is excellent.
