Nice action here. Well exposed with good comp. I do see a bit of a halo and image looks a bit soft.

A bit tight, but wonderfull light, pose, BG, ddetail and colors, I wish to see it bigger and that the bird was looking a bit more towards you. Congratulations!

Too bad it landed angled away from you, but your timing was impeccable! I also wish to see more room around - the square comp would work better with the bird moved further to the left, otherwise adding room bottom and right would be good.

Hi Bill. I love the pose, but I wish the bird were pointing towards you. I'd also like to see a bit more room on the top, bottom, and right of the frame. Remember that you can post up to 1024 pixels wide or 800 pixels tall.

Looks sharp enough to me. Love the soft light and that still, still water. For shame the gentle breeze was not behind youl Larger please, and great to see you here.
