Hi Dan, A very fine shot. I like the low angle and the subject with prey. The weeds on the bird add another element of interest. Well done.

Great DOF and amazing BG. The PB Grebe has excellent detail and exposure. A very fine image.

Wow, another one of those low perspective water shots that I love. The detail in everything is really nice. I, too, like the water plants on his back, making it a non-typical shot. (not that it would have been typical anyway!!)

Superb image of this grebe, Dan. That pond certainly looks like a spectacular place to shoot water birds. I’ll need to find a time to come down there.
