What a terrific image!!! You had great light, an amazing low angle and super behavior to capture. Love the water droplets on the adult's head and the vegetation in the chick's mouth. Your exposure of whites and blacks look spot on. If this were mind, I would move your subjects lower in the frame by taking some off of the bottom.

[Mike Hitchen]

A wonderful shot and a great viewpoint.

[David Salem]

I agree about taking a bit off the bottom but besides that this image looks great! Wonderful interaction as the parent feeds the little red headed baby the ball of algae. Exposure and details look perfect. Very nice Andreas.

[Joseph Przybyla]

Very nice Andreas, a tender moment captured. Thank you for sharing.

[Bill Dix]

An absolutely stunning image -- terrific in every way: behavior, exposure, pov. Marina said it all, including a good suggestion for crop. Congratulations, Andreas.

Brilliant. The parent is saying to the young one 'Now eat it slowly and don't choke' :S3: Love the expressions on a beautiful frame. I to would take a bit from the bottom, you don't lose any of the low POV :S3: Well done Andreas and thanks for sharing

Very nice, low angle, intimate image. I don't mind it as presented.

[Robert Kimbrell]

Great Image Andreas. What a moment you captured here in beautiful light. Well done.

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the low angle, IQ, interaction, exposure and I would take a little off the bottom comp wise but that is subjective. Excellent image Andreas!
