    I love the sweet early morning light you got on this...not something we see often with humminbird images. As posted you could trim a bit off the top. Only other thing that could have improved this is a less steep angle.

    Axel nailed the critique. Getting the right EXP is key to keeping noise at bay with the 50D and you did that well here by adding 1 2/3 stops in the low light. Love the look-bakc head angle and the splayed gorget.
