Taken last fall and getting ready for the fall migration which will be winding up soon. Although rather mean, they do have a grace about them. Appreciate the C & C and thanks for looking.
Killer droplets--not just the stuff dripping from the bill but the drops on the head and neck--with a perfect head angle. Sharp as all get out. Hard to tell if the WHITEs could go a bit brighter and if it needs a bit of CW rotation....

My first reaction was oh my gosh this image is sharp! I love the water droplets and the light. Whites and horizon look good to my eyes. Agree with Randy for taking a tad off of the left b/c I think it would give more emphasis to the bird's head.
Wonderful image Gary... love the head angle and eye contact, and the detail is amazing. I also agree about possibly cropping some along the left, and also think doing so will make this have even more impact. Great work!
