:bg3: I thought this pic of a Black Skimmer fledgling was humorous. :c3: Perhaps the little guy was practicing his limbo skills. :S3:


For full disclosure: I did open his eye a bit...

[Ofer Levy]

What a great pose! Nicely done!

[Joe Senzatimore]

Very cool capture. They are lots of fun to watch.:S3::S3::S3:

Fun shot, but also well exposed. Having the foot frozen would have been over the top.

[Karl Egressy]

Excellent pose. Well done.

[Daniel Cadieux]

I love the pose!! I wouldn't mind a looser comp. I found the image a tad dark, and quite blue...for the repost I upped the midtones in "Levels", and added red and yellow to taste in "Color Balance".

Excellent contribution to the monthly theme. You know that you can select 'theme' in the drop-down when creating the post, right? I like Daniel's repost. So well timed. Such poses go especially well with the young ones. excellent shooting angle.

Mitch, Great pose! I love it!:S3: Daniels repost looks good.

[Mitch Carucci]

Daniel,

Thanks for your suggestions. I put back what room I had, and adjusted the colors and internal contrast. You were correct. I think it looks better.

Thanks for taking the time to present an alternate version.

Mitch
