Very nice behaviour image!! Light and colours are stunning! Shooting angle and BG are awesome too! Having the youngster's beak more visible would have been even better.

Ofer, yeah, I had the same thought. :)

Amazing light, bg and interaction. I love the adult's eye.
I find it a bit tight in the frame - more room below for the virtual feet and also above would be nice.

Great capture! Fantastic behavior and beautiful light. Bet you must be wading in the water with Capt Shadle and having a lot of fun.
Love everything of it but wish the shadow wasn't on the juvi's face. But still you managed to get the catchlight which is very nice.

Beautiful image. Lovely light, great poses on both birds, and great colors. Well done.

[Nick Palmieri]

Love the interaction. Good exposure. Agree about seeing more of the beak would strengthen it, but works for me as is.

Troy, what a shooting angle and moment. Great light. A little more room at top would be the suggestion from my end.

[Marina Scarr]

Killer light, Troy. Agree with Ofer but still a wonderful behavior image.
