Hi folks ..... just a simple clean image of this species .
I would have like to go lower , but it was not possible due to the location .
I am 50/50 on the " choppy " water ... but did want to play any tonal tricks to even things out , so I left it original .
Hope you like it

Did or did not want to ... Image is lovely -- love the framing with the whole reflection. I'd have liked a bit of nice of a head turn.
with love, artie

Thanks folks for your comments , much appreciated .
Artie - you found a typo :bg3: .... it should be : did not want to play any tonal tricks :bg3:. Thanks for the pointer :5. And I am with you about a slight head turn ....

and some grammar to boot! Head turn and some more space in front of the bird would be my order! Its lovely.

I have the same two "wishes" as Ann, but excellent IQ, colours, processing. Choppy water looks good to me as well.

Detail on the bird looks great. I don't mind the choppy water. Nice framing and pose. The water drops on the back are another bonus.

Super details and colours Andreas, it's all about detail for me!

Subject is processed beautifully Andreas. Sweet light and colors pop.
The wake does not bother me, fwiw. I like that the head positioned itself nicely between the darker areas of the wake.
I, too could see a version with the subject slightly more right in the frame.
TFS!

Thanks folks ... for your comments and suggestions , much appreciated .
After reading your thoughts ... I can also see the subject a bit more to the right in the frame . Sadly I am somehow limited ... as this is basically full frame and I do not want to add more artificial parts on the left hand side .
Cheers Andreas
