Hi Gus Was Mr Fred on top of the Gazebo? Glad there was a bird at Anhinga Trail !!!! We have taken a beating at that place this year !!!!


Excellent exposure and razor sharp. Do like the selected crop. Only suggestion I have is working a better sun angle to avoid the shadow. Nailed the processing also !!!!
