Very interesting shot. what a view of the throat.

It needs a little brightening up I think. I'd have prefered to not see the bird on the left clipped and not have the bill in the URC....but I can understand how that did not happen in the field :-) But if this is not full frame and you can recrop to have more on left and less on the right, good. Or, if it fits your ethics, you can evict that bill. Well seen and executed.

Love it Layton, a unique perspective for sure....

[Daniel Cadieux]

Ha! I love it when these guys do tha, makes me smile every timet I agree with KD (although I'm OK with the brightness...feels like late day low light), and I would even go for a bit more below if you have it.

[Dave McGowen]

Awesome shot! Great timing with the wide open beak. I think that I would clone out the beak in the top right corner.

[Layton E Parham]

It's full frame, I can adjust it. I'm happy that you liked it.
