This handsome fellow was captured several years ago and never processed.

Post: Full frame, LRCC and PS. Cleaned up a few small spots of debris on head, removed a second catchlight.

Advice and comments appreciated.

Cheers

Sweet profile shot of this Loonie, with a striking bow wave and lovely green water.

Excellent shot, Randy! Great colors, POV and detail. The blue wave adds a lot of interest. You've nailed the exposure too. I can see some dust spots (one below the bill and a few on the LHS), but other than that, no nits from me. TFS

[Randy Stout]

Thanks guys. Sorry about the dust spots!

A classic Randy loon picture.
Nice low POV and IQ. The bow wave adds a lot,
