Hi Allen. Love the pose you captured. The perch looks real good especially with the water around it. I may have tried a vertical crop here with some more on the bottom if you have it. The image looks a wee bit dark on my screen? Nice feather detail.

Allen - I like the low perspective you have here and the light reflections from the water on the underside of the bird. It's a nice wing position and a nice catchlight in the eye. Thanks for sharing.

My first though was this would make a good vertical. This is nice tough. Good wing position and nice detail.

I like the pose, partially submerged perch and composition works for me. It looks like the light was starting to get a little harsh. Nice image Allen.
