Binu:

Love the spread landing display, esp. the tail. Snug framing works well here. Texture in water adds to sense of depth.

Cheers

Love the head-on approach, landing pose with those curled wing tips. Your exposure and processing look spot on and really allow us to enjoy all the details .

Excellent landing pose captured.Very shades of brown on bird, nice wing span, beautiful blues and composition.

Regards,
Satish.

Hi Binu, excellent light quality, well exposed on a difficult character, and you certainly captured a great incoming pose. Love the light blues of the water.

Wow! I've photographed these guys a lot in FL and getting that exposure takes the right kind of light and the perfect settings. Well done!

Incoming pose is great, with the fanned tail and outstretched feet making the image IMO.

Fantastic image Binu :S3: Very well done

Thanks everyone for the comments!

Nice work Binu! Could not have asked for a more ideal incoming flight pose in what looks like great light. (Next time ask him to carry a fish in his mouth :))

great incoming pose and that fanned tail is like an air brake! I might adjust the black point a bit
