As I said, I think Loons are drop dead beautiful! I waited in my Kayak for hours from total cloud cover to just at peak light for the day, then no light and heavy clouds. They played to within 10 feet of my Kayak. I had to wait for it to swim away some. I like the way they roll, dive and splash around, then pop up right next to you. Like a game of hide and seek. They are good at it.
The strip of light white in the water is a reflection of some portion of a dock close by. It does not bother me in the least. Many residents here are used to seeing Loons in or near hand of man objects, boats, docks etc. Lots of offices proudly display such images on the walls of waiting rooms just like this one. I try to always make uncluttered images when I can. This particular streak does not take away as I see it. What do you think?
