Grebe - Falklands

[Stuart Hill]

Found this Grebe, skulking around the bankside vegetation during a recent trip to the Falkland Islands. Spent far to much time with them but couldn't resist those eyes. Both tufted and silver grebes have such piercing red eyes.

Different...works for me

Hi Phil

I like it too - different
reflection a bit distracting, maybe tone down a liitle

[Stuart Hill]

Thanks for the reply chaps. Will tone down that reflection. Thought it created a bit of mystery, glad you think it works.

Some thing different with very nice 3D effect caused by BG and FG.I like the red eye and beautiful composition.
