i messed up last nite when i posted 4000 making a comment...i was trying to save it for a pic post. so here goes. something totally different. not sure if you will like it......if not, that's OK. my wife hates it. i kinda like it.

taken at Ding Darling sunday morning. D300, Bigma at 500mm, f/6.3, 1/2500s, 0EV, ISO 400.

thanks for looking. comments appreciated.

I like it Doctor...It shows the bird in its natural habitat. I would just take off 1/4 from the top only; to focus more on the subject...I like the color of the water and the splash of blue on the bottom...your bird is nice and sharp with very good color rendition...another winner...:D:cool:

Whoa, I love the light and the water! Interestingly enough, I was thinking the top looked fine and that you needed to crop off a bit of the bottom :)

[Lance Peters]

Hi Mr H - like it as presented -- Well spotted and executed :)

[Roman Kurywczak]

Hey Harold,
I'm with Kurt.......pano crop removing all the blue......leave everything else.....you can see what I mean with a "browser crop"...just scroll until you get just above the blue....then I really like it!....even with all the room!
PS Congrats on 4000!!!

Harold, Really nice colors and bird! Agree w/ pano crop!!

OOPS almost forgot- Big congrats on #4k!!!

[Christopher Miller]

Very nice, love the colors and light! Excellent use of negative space! Personally, I would like to see a tad more room on the left so there's some separation between the ripples and the edge of the picture.

Great comments Agree on the extra space for the ripples ... good eye !!! I think the little crop from the bottom to have all green.

Most of these images are made to a tight pano but do like very much how its presented !!! ... big congrats on the 4k !!!
