I was able to come away with many images of this fellow. I liked this one the best--even though it would have been great to get more eye contact and head turn. Oh well! :) Maybe tomorrow!

Nice striding pose and soft light. The bill looks a bit oversharpened since the edges appear jagged. I also wish for more head turn toward you. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks, Axel. :)
Here it is again--reprocessed with the bill fixed.

Looks much better this way!

Realyl like the repost of the image, nice "leg up" pose and good details..

[Judy Lynn Malloch]

Love the action and composition Bonnie and the excellent detail !!!

Bonnie, the repost looks better sharpness-wise but I prefer the tint in the BG on the original. The yellowish foamy stuff gives the ground a dirtyish appearance. The squared angle leg up is neat! :-)
