Wow...this is really dark! Were you trying to keep the sky from blowing out? Everything looks as if it needs a major levels adjustment.
Rick,
The pose is good and the fish is a plus of course. The image looks sharp but it could use some sharpening around the bill/eye/face. Also the image is too dark, i would recommend curves. Also it would look better to have the bird flying into the frame rather than out.
If I was standing next to you and i was shooting with Canon I would dial in +2/3 for the back/top lighting.
Robert
Agree with the comments above, but also I envy you for having the oportunity to photograph these birds, it is my dream to get the chance before I leave Florida. Congratulaitons!
Thanks Rick. Been there done that.
