    One of the nicest transformations during breeding season.

    Thanks for looking.

    Hi Tim, I really like the light in this, and in turn, the light has brought out the finer plumage detail. Thats an impressive eye.

    Hi Tim - Nice light and excellent detail as Stu said. I would consider dropping the cyans slightly as I find the color of the water competing with the grebe. Dropping the cyans seems to give it a bit more separation.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Thanks Rachel, but I try to keep the colors true and that was the waters color.

    Great looking adult grebe Tim and I like the blue of the water as it really makes the bird pop quite well.
    Well done
