This juvi is the same one shown in my last post. He swam from the bright sunlight into the deep shadows. Always interesting to get two such different looks in a matter of a few minutes.

The dark background makes the Loon pop for sure. Love the eye contact, the light on the Loon and the water droplets, Randy.
Such a perfect portrait. Love the dark BG, the droplets on the bird, the hint of green in the water and the perfect HA.
Love the dark BG against the bird. Beautiful detail and a very nice looking eye.

Lovely shot Randy great exposure control and a good pose. The contrast is quite high but it shows the subject to good effect, there are some subtle but lovely tones in the water.
Excellent image Randy! I like the water color, IQ, light and composition.
