    Like so much the pose. The bird is sharp with fine details on wings. The exposure of black is good. If mine I would add a bit of canvas at the left side. TFS.

    Cheers,

    Nice bg, perch, and fluffed up pose. The red eye is awesome.

    The lighting on this looks great and the blacks came out nice in this one. The pose is sweet and the red eye, even though small, really makes the image pop for me. Well done

    Lovely pose and light. The red eye stands out nicely. Great BG and the perch is nice also, although I wish in a more perfect world it didn't extend below the bird.

    Hi Sanjeev, great wing display, sharp, and its kinda strange to see 'others' posting from one of my favourite locations. Gotta love that BG.

    I like it overall. Good book on the blacks, and a perfect typical cormorant wingspread. Did you get any with the head angled parallel to the sensor and with the bill raised up to horizontal? To me that would be killer perfect. Still good as is though.
