This is one to be proud of, Mike. Love the colours, sharpness, BG, striding pose, wavelets. Might lighten the vertical leg reflection a little and may be a candidate for a very subtle corner burn. Nothing more to say.

Terrific, I agree with all the suggestion from Tony, but as said, love it, great comp, pose, colors, exposure, detail and light! Congratulations!

Love the soft light and the low angle. BG blends nicely and the waves are small and well placed. Nice.

Love the soft light and the waves. His neck looks a bit doinky. (That is a professional term.) Was he looking at something???

Nice one, like the bird very much.

BTW I loved your show at the Newton library.
Hope to see another...

Cheers, Ilija

Very well exposed, and pin sharp. I like the pastel colours in the BG. Congrats on an outstanding image Mike.

Lovely low angle here Mike. Light and colour is also very impressive.
