    Default Little Cormorant : Laem Pak Bia, Thailand

    This was taken in mid-day sun - pretty harsh lighting. Black coloured birds are not the easiest to expose for properly. Hope this one makes it. I like the head angle and eye contact of this one.

    Good-looking specimen, I like the look-back pose, light, sharpness and BG. I might remove the lower catchlight and the whitewash on the perch.

    I think you did very well with the light, and the beautiful background perfectly sets off the bird.

    Ah, beauty itself. What nice looking bird and great BG. I like your composition and light you had and agree with Axel's recommendations.

    Hi Phil, I think you did a very good job on exposure. The details look great and appear sharp. I agree with Axel that the look back pose is pleasing. Thanks for sharing.

    Thank you all for your comments. The bird poo did not really catch my eye but since Axel mentioned it, everytime I look at this shot it catches my attention! Will do a clean up as suggested.

    Thanks again for looking.
