SO QUIET around here! All the waterfowl and shorebirds have departed for the Arctic for the summer, so here's another frame - tighter this time - of the breeding
plumage Pacific Loon that spent an unlikely week in a golf course pong 20 minutes from my exorbitantly price Bay Area apartment.
Gonna have to go to the photo vault for content these next few weeks...
Canon 600mm f/4 IS II on EOS 1DX Mark II

Processed in LR CC with a few local exposure adjustments to even out the blacks and whites
Well exposed, composed and processed. Excellent shooting angle as well. The loons that I work are on their nests, and hope to see the hatch in about two weeks. Thanks for keeping me exciting to see them again.
