    Gary, Sweet capture! I might clone out the hot spot where the bill meets the head - draws my eye. Bob

    Sharp,well exposed,unusual but effective pose, nice angle.

    The water color goes very well with the bird.

    Through the fence?

    Cheers

    Great low angle! Like that head turn and the leg coming out of the water.

    Super pose Gary, and I like the low perspective. Lovely colour of his head and eye, and I do like the softer colour of the water. I would maybe take at least half off the top.
