    Different conditions this morning as I has ear;y sun above but a light fog along the water.

    Does this work for you?

    Awesome light and perfect HA! I love the green water. If mine I'd eliminate the specks in the water, and I'd love more canvas right and bottom.

    Oh yeah, this works. Love the colors, especially the sheen that you've got on his head. Recompose and you've got a real beauty here, Jim.

    Lovely light, sharpness and posture. I would prefer slightly more canvass behind the bird.

    Jim:

    Good comments above, agree about crop.

    Great light, showing off the sheen/colors of head, and of course the magical eye.

    I was struck by the somewhat dingy looking whites. Don't think it is just color temp or exposure.

    Did the bird seem a bit "dirty" in person? Sounds silly for a diving bird, always in the water, but the whites just seem a bit unusual. Always trying to learn more about the loons.

    Cheers

    Randy
