    Sharp, nice wing position and BKGR. Would like a bit more room all around. Would love to see the full 800 pixels here.

    Hello Bob,

    Very nice capture. As mentioned, I would add more room at the bottom. I would also remove some noise from the BG. Keep them coming!

    Hey Bob!

    Man, that is a sweet birdie! I love the colors of Eiders and the beaks they have, very nicely captured. My nit is the far wing is oof because of the shallow dof, would be nice to see it in focus as well. That said I have no shots like this of an Eider and I am jealous! :)

    This is really beautiful. I love the color and sharp flight capture.

    Some selective noise removal in the sky would make it even better.

    Awesome, love the soft blue BG and the angle and wing position.

    Good work. Agree with the tight comments, just a little more would be good.
