Hi Kathy Really love this image Best way to present a bird slightly going away from you I like seeing the eye clearly and all so sharp !!!

Very goo detail and like how framed the reflection If anything I would like a lttle more room all around, feels a little tight in frame !!! Big Congrats on this one !!!!

Hi Kathy,
I love this glider...:D The capture is fantastic. You have great details and vibrant colors...also love the clear eye...:cool:

[Harold Davis]

great eye!! two times!!!! agree with above. might give a little more room all around. fantastic detail!!

[Nonda Surratt]

Wonderful image and the eye is super sharp. The nly thing that sort of bothers me the the bottom of the bill it almost looks not attached to anything, maybe something to lighten up the lower part of the face to separate it a bit more from the water?

[Julie Kenward]

What a catch! I had to look twice to figure out the mouth and where it was at! I agree with Al - I'd give it a little more room on top and right, otherwise, home run!

[Oscar Zangroniz]

Excellent capture. Love the reflection and the colors.
Congrats and Welcome.

Kathy, I love the colors, the action and the reflection. I had the same reaction as Nonda and Julie; I had to look at the reflection to see where/how the lower bill was connected. I don't know if there is a way to emphasize the separation of the body from the water? That said, it is a very special image.
