    Nice low angle, gorgeous bird and nice comp.
    It's probably a perception, but it looks like it could use some CCW rotation.
    I'd also do a bit of shadows/highlight tweaking to give it a touch more pop.
    Very nice image.

    Nice low perspective here . Sharp bird too . While you have managed a shot parallel to you , it has crossed you a wee bit more than I would have liked .

    Great looking Grebe, Robert, and like the comp and low angle. Agree on a bit of CCR.

    Hi Robert, excellent low angle, lovely soft light, and I like the fluffy plumage below the wing. Great eye. I think the swimmimg posture is deceiving, as some of the ripples in the FG are dead level.

    Lovely image, Robert, I love your low angle, the details in those lighter feathers, and the head angle. Nice job.

    Excellent shot, maybe just a tad more sharpening on the feathers on the head. (?)
