A Parent's Job

Loved watching the grebe family take turns leaving the nest to dive and come back with food for their kids.

Great subject, great crop (though I might like a little more room on the left), and all-round I love this shot.

Where was this taken? And is this a big crop or were you able to get that close?

[Ramon M. Casares]

Great moment and lovely detail, I would leave more room all arround. Congratulaitons! Very cute!

This was taken at Viera Wetlands a week ago. The birds were about 25 feet from shore, and I got down low. This is about a 30% crop. I could have left more room. There were 4 babies and the next day there were only two. I have so many images I can't decide what are best.

Like the crop and what the image is saying. More room left and right is appropriate, I think. The image seems to be tilted. Looks like it needs to be rotated clock-ways about 3-5 degrees. All other aspects are good.
