>>> Well maybe.;) These birds provided so many great opportunities it will be hard to see them go. I think with the coming storm , we may not see them till next year. This is one more from the last trip to the colony. Another "puddle sitter" , this one also content to just sit in the water.
Doug, I processed this a bit different in an attempt to get rid of the color cast seen in the previous images , so interested in any and all views.

Joe, I will miss these guys too. I like the sharp details and open mouth. I think the composition is good and the HA is very close:) Hope to see more of these guys from you.

I'm betting on the "well maybe" part:). As mentioned, good comp. The colours look good to me. Hard to tell if that is sand or highlights on the lower mandible, but I'd try to tone that down a bit. I love the skimmers but don't have any up here so you can keep posting them all you want!!

Nice light, BG and action Joe. i wonder if you have one like this but with the complete reflection. Color looks fine in my monitor :)

Joe, this is superb. Terrific shooting angle and strong diagonal comp with that open beak. Processing looks fine to me.

Joe, I do like your usual warmer tones-they seem more natural. I like the open mouth and sharpness of this juvi.

[Doug Brown]

Looking good Joe!

Excellent shot, like the open beak.
