Post processed in Lightroom Classic CC and Photoshop CC 2018, removed some smudges from out of focus vegetation, also some bubbles on the water surface
Cropped for composition and presentation
Nice one, Joe. Good light, sharp, with bonus prey. White bird looks gorgeous against the lovely blue water. Based on the reflection of the eye I would appear to need a slight CCW rotation.
Nice one. Like the grass/prey in the open mouth. The composition works well. Love the ripples in the water.
Beautiful. Too bad it was so windy. This one is very close to level. It might need a sliver of CCW rotation; you might try connecting the bill tips with the ruler ...The early light is sweet as are its reflections on the plumage.
with love, artie
Hey Artie, thank you for viewing and commenting. I did use the level tool in Lightroom from the tip of the bill to the same in the reflection, difficult because the reflection is not perfect. I think it is very close.Quote:

Thaks evernone for viewing and commenting, very much appreciated.
Very nice, Joseph. The light is great. But there doe seem to be some sort of processing-effect-halo around the bird, particularly on the head and beak. I'm not
sure if it's from NR or sharpening, but it's also present in the water ripples. This is a nice image so it might be worth trying to sort that out.
Thanks everyone for viewing and commenting, very much appreciated.
