From Thursday's great session at Granite Point. Even the LBH posed for me! M3 on 500f4 - handheld, iso200 at 1/1000, f6.3, ME, AiServo. -Bob

Very nice light, wing position and details. It would also work as horizontal crop. You could try to remove the sheen on the legs and feet and the reflection of it. Thanks for sharing!

Bob, The layers of complimentary colors in this image are so pretty. There's a watercolor feel to it which is so pleasing.

[Blake Shadle]

Very nice image, I like the colors and the composition. The PP background blurring is very noticeable, although.

Lots of detail and nice vertical composition. Bob. It looks a little dark on my monitor.

A very pretty photo Bob. Love the refection in the water. But as Blake said, the PP is quite noticeable. With a little reworking, you'll have a really nice image. Thanks for posting!

Lovely capture, it just needs a little fine tuning. The feet shine's got to go!!

I love the light and the overall COMP. For Blake and Doug, what are you noticing in the BKGR???

[Jody Melanson]

Beautiful image, Bob. Agree about the blurring, you can notice it around the neck of the bird...
