    Didn't think I was gonna like this from the thumbnail, but it's pretty sweet! Excellent lighting, exposure, and details (especially on the feet). It's so weird to see this bird
    over choppy water, and I think that's what makes this such a cool frame. He thinks he's a shearwater!

    Excellent sharp capture, well exposed, the water colour is extraordinary. I like the wing touching the water, a nice touch. Detail on the feet very good. I would have liked slightly more detail in the underwing of the bottom wing, but not a big deal.

    Nice sharp frame Jon! Love those feet and the wing clipping the water. Nice work!

    Cool capture Jon, the red?yellow cpuld push a bit more they appear slightly thin, they are richer in colour. 3x2 could work too.
