    Full Frame : First (and maybe the last) time I was ever able to get close enough to a chick for full frame images.

    Photographed earlier this month on the North Shore of Massachusetts.

    Looking forward to your comments and critiques!

    Very prety shot. A plus is the location which gives wonderful view of the feet.

    Pose, exposure, details are great.

    Super cute; love the pond in front of the chick. If I want to be very picky I wish for the bright spot behind the head of the bird wasn't there. Very nice FF image, big congrats for this one.

    OMG that is the sweetest little thing ever. I love the little fluffy body and the fact that we can see the feet. I also like the way the surf has come in with the the angle, the bubbles and the slight reflection. I keep finding myself staring at that little dark thing in the water front left. I would probably remove it if it were mine. Don't really mind the area near the head. Love this image Mike

    I like the leaning pose, fluffy detail, and congrats on getting the chick so close.
