    I am enjoying your Iceland photos a lot Bill.
    I never got close to these when I was there last year.
    This is very attractive. I like the pose and the perch. Getting light out of the eyes
    is about impossible but if you can create a realistic catchlight I would give it a try.

    Very very nice Bill. Agreed with Dan's observation about the eyes but this is beautiful! I love the pose and interaction here.

    I love the interaction, especially the bill tip-to-tip cuddling. Great perch and BG. Sharp. The blacks seen a touch dark on my monitor, and I do wish the left bird's behind was swung over towards us a bit more...but all-in-all a very enjoyable image.

    Bill, nice shot of these beautiful birds, some of your blacks are on the solid side but other than that...

    Hi Bill, I really like this behavior you caught, it is very sweet. I find the blacks a it too dark overall.
