    Fantastic details, and good comp. Exposure perfect. I only wish the head was angled more towards us.

    Yes, a bummer for the head angle, all the rest is top notch. Those small white feathers are very nice on the bird. TFS.

    I agree with the others that the head angle isn't the classic, but it does give you a nice graphic pose, and something different to the norm.

    Nice work.

    Composition with Anhingas are usually difficult, well done on this one!

    Wow! I love the detail here. Don't mind the head turn as it is part of such a strong diagonal.
