Only rarely will I spot a Pacific Loon along the Oregon Coast, so I was thrilled to see my first Pacific Loon in breeding plumage. I also like the water color and patterns.
Canon 7dII; Sigma 150-600 at 600 mm; 1/1250 at f 6.3. ISO 400
Nice composition with superb water, patterns on the Loon, and head turn.
I love the composition and the water ripples, Allen. The loon looks a bit soft to me. It almost looks like the AF caught the reflection of the breast pattern rather than the breast itself. Still a fine image.
Love the feather patterns and water ripples, and the raised foot on the left - wonderful pose and head turn.
I’d suggest saturating that beautiful red eye more, and dodging the dark area on the head a bit, to bring them both out.
Sweet shot!
