    Kaustubh:

    Excellent low angle, exposure,creamy water,birds angle in frame,eye.

    Not easy to get a good exposure on coot. Usually the bill or blacks suffer.

    Well done.

    Excellent exposure Kaus, and I like the slightly angled pose. Another killer perspective, with lovely surrounding blue water BG.

    Great low angle and excellent detail in whites and blacks. Nice blue water too.

    Kaustubh, another beauty - coots can be so tricky to expose well, but you did a great job. That water is beautiful!
