I give credit, where credit is due... You got a better shot of him than I did. My hat off to you my friend...:D:cool::cool::cool:

Excellent shot Harold. love the clarity and definition of the fly.
Beautiful!!!!!

Nice touch with the deer fly Harold. Good looking backlite image. I don't see any blowouts and the composition is well done. I might have included a bit more of the neck to get the s-curve affect, but the close-up you did works well too. BG is even and a tone very complimentary to the anhinga's colors. Well done.

I like the crop as presented Very nice feel and a good looking bird

The fly is a nice touch but probably not appreciated by the bird !!!! Good head angle and exposure Got the processing well and all lead to an excellent capture !!!

[Dave Phillips]

super appeal for a backlit image with detail....nice!

[Nonda Surratt]

Very nice!!! The fly is an interesting addition.
