    I really liked the vibrant colors of the duckweed and the blue sky reflecting in the water with the contrast of the Grebes.

    Thanks for looking.

    I too like the vibrant colors in this one and I have never seen a baby Pied billed Grebe before so thanks for sharing. Nice poses, details and pano comp too. Well done

    Tim that is a cracker, love the vibrant colours and the low viewpoint. There are a few circular specular highlights you may wish to address, they don't bother me personally.
    I like the composition, just wondering about a bit less on the base and more on top but I guess you will have already considered that and found the background then becomes a little intrusive??

    Really like the colors and the crop. The one specular highlight lower and to the left of the adults beak keeps catching my eye so I would remove it but that's just me. TFS

    Great BG/FG colours showing off the Grebes well. The HA's and facial expressions are priceless. Nice one Tim.

    Will
