    LR and PS. Evicted a bubble and bright spot on the water, blended a couple harsh bkg spots. Fairly large crop for me but details were just hanging on.

    Hi Brian, sweet, sweet light here, and just love the warm colours. Excellent low perspective, and a great HA to round off. Killer water surface too.

    Hi Brian, I like the low angle pov and golden water at sunrise. I especially like the cocked tail pose.

    I like the hunkered own pose. Low angle works well of course, and the BG is beautiful. Unfortunate (IMO) that the catchlight is so large and covering most of the pupil. Easy fix should you wish to do so!

    The lighting and exposure are perfect. Perspective is very good as always. A little more detail can be obtained in black.
    Congratulations Brian
