This one is from Morro Bay, CA. This common loon was close by and I ventured into the water! The loon tolerated my presence and allowed for some cool images :) Here is one that i liked just as it rose above the wave. For processing, I used fract on one layer and then used mask to paint over exposing the lower layer. I also used adjustment layer for saturation and selective colors. Hope you like it...

Jewel like! Great job with Frac and masking back just enough detail, Indranil!

Indranil, I love the moody look, the filtering and the wave! Nice to have you back!

Hi Indranil, nice fract work and composition too. I like the effect the fractalius had around the loon's eye.

Hi Indranil, nice job on this one - I love the glow and the motion of the image. It's nice to see a different image of a loon!
