This is a photo from March 10, 2015. I might have posted it along with the other Grebe "rushing" shots I took with Tjie Poo and Charlie Van Tassel. This is the end of a rush as this fellow hit the water. As you can see from the settings below, it was a very bright day giving me challenges managing the whites.
Nikon D4 Nikkor 600mm 1/1600 f/9 ISO250 RAW White Balance Auto Tripod, gimbal Processed in Lightroom CC 2015, Photoshop CC 2014, NIK and TK
Thank you for your comments.

6 commentsGreat action, Patrick, and I love that triple eye reflection. I can imagine seeing something like that when reviewing images. Excellent work.
Good one Patrick Did well with the conditions too!
Excellent action

Patrick: what's not to like about a very well executed action/behavioral shot? On what aspect of the photo did you use the TK masks? Reason for asking is that I'm about to take the plunge. Richard
Richard,
I used TK to dampen the whites. It is a great program. I recommend it without reservation and it is the highest value dollar per dollar program I own. Keith Bauer is an expert with the program. He can answer questions better than I can.
It's really good.
I like this a great deal Patrick, love the comp with the splash and the dive. My only suggestion is a little more room on the bottom if you have it.
