This is from the pelagic off Portland, Victoria, a few weeks ago. Had terrible difficulty trying to balance the colour/detail of the bird with the glare off the water. Set the camera at +2 or +1 2/3 and did recovery in raw.

Nice job on the recovery, Rob. This looks fine. Nice crisp image and the bright bg isn't overpowering.
