Great crested grebes courting

Tripod Canon 7D Canon 500mm f4 L IS & 1.4TC Mk1 ISO 320 -0.3 1/1600 sec f5.6 (1200px)

All comments welcome

Very interesting birds, with a good background, excellent sharpness, color and light. It would have been over the top if the bird on the left had only looked more toward you.

Norm said my thoughts exactly. Still love these images though

Love the poses as presented. This is mating behavior and had the left bird's face been angled toward us, we wouldn't be experiencing the behavior. I would like to see both heads sharper.

I too like the pose as is. I would take a bit off the left to match the right side. Great job catching this behavior.

Nice mating moment captured here but I am not sure about the composition, it felt unbalance.

I am loving each frame of this series

Wonderful pose and I love the low perspective just need a touch more sharpening and I am loving the larger posting size

Excellent interaction image, Jonathan. Great IQ and pose(s).

Your grebe images have all been great. I like the poses just like they are, the low shooting angle works well.

nice image Jonathan,like the composition and light,sharp,nice exposure.

Thanks very much for the C&C everyone, much appreciated.

Very nice pose and good fullscreen. Could use some more sharpening though.
