Lovely image Andreas. The penguin looks good down the middle with the low POV. I really love how the greys move into the lovely colours on the upper chest. Great pose

Lovely dynamic image, Andreas. I really like monochrome pallette which highlights the colours on the neck and bill. Twist in the neck, flipper position on flying droplets tell the story. Tight, centred crop work more me with this image. With an image like this I sometime find a very subtle, almost imperceptible vignette is worth trying.

A real beauty Andreas! I like the twisting pose, water drops, IQ, open bill and composition.

Excellent capture Andreas, all looks good to me. Regards, Ian.

I appreciate the humor in your title and in the cute pose of the bird.

The bird seems to be posing like a bull fighter! Excellent and unusual and refreshing capture with good interest. Nice work with the techs too Andreas.
