This image was captured on a warm, early morning at Whitesbog as the LEYE was foraging for food, in August of 2014. C&C welcome.

Hi Geoffrey, I like the angled pose, together with the slightly open bill. Lovely circular ripples, and Im in two minds if you should come up from the bottom a touch. :w3

[Jim Crosswell]

I like the pose, ripples and BG. I would crop up from the bottom to eliminate the OOF FG. I did a scroll composition and liked the result. Well done Geoffrey.

[William Dickson]

Very nice looking frame Geoffrey. Love the BG colours and the bird blends well. Nice pose.

Nice pose, beautiful water colors, and I love the open beak. Another vote to crop out the foreground.

[Loi Nguyen]

Love the colors and the serenity this image evokes. Well done. Loi

A pleasing image here. I am OK with presentation as is.

Thanks everyone.
