Taken two weekends back in the local marina. It doesn't look like we are getting the numbers we had from previous years.

Thank and appreciate your comments.

Nice capture. Wonderful job on the exposure which in turn has given you nice feather detail. Great HA with the open mouth and the BG is very appealing. Well done

[arash_hazeghi]

you caught the great calling pose! sharp with good details. Where possible, a lower angle would improve this.

This is a terrific shot.
Nice calm water and perfect HA.
Like the water droplets on the back .
I really like the bow wave and the way the wake has the nice curve in it,

This is quite beautiful. Love the calling pose (audio used?) and the look-back HA. Colours and details are spot on. Excellent texture to the moving water too. Not sure what you have as canvas before cropping but I am not crazy about the head's reflection skimming the bottom edge. I would also darken the pupil for web presentation. All in all that is quite appealing!!

Nice clean image of this species.

I like the sharpness, curved neck, exposure and details. Comp wise I would either include the whole head reflection or crop from the bottom to the beginning of the bill reflection and add some to the left of the frame. Very well done Ramon.
