Pelican stretch

Fort Collins, Colorado. There are several ponds that are worth visiting. One had four kingfishers, unfortunately too far to get a shot of.

I wish the blacks in the wing feathers were not so black, and I wish there was some yellow skin visible between the eye and feather. The harsh light and its angle did not help you much here. I do like what you did composition-wise though :-)

I like the original composition of this image but agree with Daniel about the blacks and the yellow skin

Glad you had a good time in Ft. Collins Gary! I agree with Daniel's comments on this one. Thanks for posting!
