Another Hooptie Spoonie

Here is another juvi spoonie from a morning spent with James, Marina, and Cheryl out on the Hooptie.

Looks like you all had a very productive day. Lovely light, inflight pose, and wide wing span. Nice eye contact too!

[Marina Scarr]

I really like the comp you chose for this one, Don. Your BG adds interest as do the dangling feet and water droplets. I wonder if this was the same bird that I just posted. Perfect exposure BTW. We really did have fun, and I look forward to next time.

When I saw this post I was pretty sure it had to be the same guy as Marina's post! A very cooperative and photogenic spoonie!
I really like this image. You can never go wrong with the pinks and greens.
Lots of nice light and details. Perfect exposure as well.

Hey Don, It was so nice meeting you and shooting together. You did great with this one. Exposure looks great with a nice take-off pose. Love the water drops at the feet.

Nice flight pose and mottled BG. I'd be tempted to fill-in the LRC black area with a touch of colour, but still OK as is too.

Beautiful incoming pose. Exposure and details look great. Love the comp and the feet with the water dripping. Very Nice!
