Nice image Dan. I like the water drops on her back and the drop suspended in front of her beak. I also like the head angle.

Another fine image of this hen. Although I liked the previous one better with the gorgeous light, this is a very different, and definitely wet, look. Keep 'em coming.

This is great Dan.
I love the light and the low POV and the vegetation in the bill and the drop of water.
You get bonus points for a great title!
IQ and HA are excellent as well,

Hi Dan, great HA, and just love the wet head. I really like all the droplets large and small, and the piece of veggie and droplet in front of the bill, puts this over the top.

Between the wet look, water beads on the back, the water dropping, and the piece of vegetation in the bill you have alot going on here, but in a minimalistic (is that a word?) kind of way. Excellent image...

Nicely done—love that she has the vegetation falling from her bill. My kind of image!

[Karl Egressy]

Nice image of this wet lady, Dan. I love the eye contact, HA and the droplets of water on the body.

Beautiful portrait, great details and colors.

Everything comes together here, love the wet T shirt look! The colours of the bird and the reflected light in the water couldn't be better, slight head turn and to finish off a water droplet, well done.

Very well done Dan! Great angle/exposure/ and comp. I would prefer a bit off the top :) ....go figure......but all in all an excellent image!
