Unique view. Perfect DOF to keep full head sharp. Excellent image Chas.
I'm not crazy about the reflection but I adore the loon's face and have never seen an image quite like this...I will now look at it for a while. Nifty! Thank you for sharing this!
The angle makes it a very very unique one indeed .
Very nice shot. I really like the head on angle. Great water color and great comp.
Well done.
Wow, sunny 16 works perfectly yet again.This image is chock full of interest with the water patterns on the head, the eyes, the bow wake and that amazingly artistic reflection.
I like the light on its face and the reflection but I am also always puzzled by the fact that the bird is not totally seen : I do also have shots of loons in this kind of position and I wonder if they are keeper or not. I would certainly keep this one but it does not answer my reflection on that topic. If you would like to share any ideas, please do so.![]()
Spectacular, Chas. The horizontal line across the middle had me confused for a second. Was there a 2nd loon in front of this one?
