Nice sharp portrait of this guy. Really like the wiggly reflection of the bottom of the bill, and how the blue in the bill there works with the darker blue of the foreground.

Ah now you've got the IQ rocking in this image! Sharp and detailed. Lovely pastel colours, good vertical comp. I get the feeling the image may need a bit of CW rotation, not much though.

Really nice detail ...Love the pose. Beautiful colours throughout, and yes to a wee bit CW.

Thanks, I debated rotation and decided to leave it as there are several differently angled horizontal lines and the important one of the body against the water could rotate a bit CCW.

Artie, just find a boat ramp where fishers are returning with their catch on one of the many east coastal Australian lakes.
