Love it! Great pose! Nice light, detail, comp and exposure! I would only suggest you to remove the smallest catchlight. But that would be preety much it to me. Congratulations!

Really like this one Danny! Nice low angle, good eye contact, and beautiful calm water. Do you have the complete reflection? I'd be interested to see a version that includes the full reflection.

[Danny Laredo]

Thanks for the comments.

Doug...I wish :) The redshank got too close for me to get the whole reflection in

Very beautiful image. the water droplet and the ripples take this one level up. At iso 6.3 and early morning, you still got 1/1000. Sun must be bright and the air extremely dry. Dont you just love it when u get such good speed?

Very nice pose and colors. I'm puzzled by the EXP and the fact that you use ISO 100. Even for the 20D I'm sure you can get some more real estate out of the ISO :)

Not much to say except congrats on such a fine image! A very clean presentation. Great pose and comp, the touch of green above adds alot to it. A bit of a sharpening halo is visible along the back edges of the legs.

Stunning light and detail, and just love the clarity in this. Great low angle, and love the droplet at the end of the beak.

This imo a super shot. The pose light comp angle bg and detail is great. Well done
