Dan,

Certainly does have a unique look due the HH. Not much motion blur so you certainly can hold the camera steady.

I few things I feel would have made this more appealing: all the crane's heads up (yeah I know that is a tough one), the two on the right gone as they merge with the dark grasses.

I would try a crop off the top of about 1/5 the total height.

different .steady eddy you may be :) don't quite no if the slight blur is a issue.......mmm but still great colours

[Jay Sheinfield]

I kind of like the blur. It has the appeal of an Orton effect. I agree withthe comments on two birds on the right...........

[Roman Kurywczak]

Hey Dan, These are tough when there is so much in the water besides the birds too.....so agree with Robert's assesment.

Hi Dan, wonderful colors and I like how the diagonal cloud (and to alesser extent the dead tree) challenges all the straight horizontal lines in the image. I'm not so sure about the blur....
