    Great view of that red eye. Love the colors in this frame from the bird to the water.

    Kevin:

    Vivid colors, like the bow wake, good POV, drops on feathers, all good.

    Very nice capture of a lovely fellow.

    Cheers

    Kevin, a gorgeous frame!

    Is the yellow in the ear area a little hot or is that how it was in the field? The exposure on the rest of the bird looks great so I presume it's perfectly fine.

    sweet shot kevin like the other one, the head area is a bit hot / over exposed as Brian mentioned. it looks flat, wondering if it was over exposed?

    Love the water, the light, the colors and detail. Like the last, a beautiful canvas overall. TFS

    The yellows on the head read 255 but no blinklies. Rest of the bird was exposed correctly. Even when I have no info in the last box and well underexposed the yellows are still hot in most of the frames if the sun is out at all. I have been trying to underexpose just to keep the yellow from being so hot. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
