From a recent outing. Common loons are frequently seen in our Long Island waters in the winter. A bit of luck is involved in photographing them because they dive and stay underwater for quite a whilte. Where they pop up is a bit of a surprise. This beauty was very close, so opted for a portrait. His eye was unslightly because there was a catch light right over the pupil and another below, so some photoshop work was required.
Thank you for your comments and for looking.
