I liked the light and colours in this. Taken on the South Coast, south of Durban during a long weekend at the sea, August last year.

Great calling pose, nice light and detail. I do wish we could see the feet here, and that there was more detail in the whites in the upper side of the bird.

I like the calling pose, head angle and sharpness and wish we could see the feet, too.

[Joe Senzatimore]

I know it has feet , so I think it is a beautiful image as is. Great setting and very nice light.

[Vida van der Walt]

Stu this is so beautiful! Like you, I also love the light and colours in this as well as the pose with open beak, sharp detail and a great comp.:)

Thank you all for the kind words. Much appreciated.
