Cute little one, great comp that puts its small size in just the right relationship to the scene..

Great plane of focus that gives us the bird, shoreline sea shells, & 'bubbles'. Very cool laugh

Techs & details look very nice, well done Ray! devil

Hey Ray,
I echo Howard's comments and will add that the colors throughout the image really pop and the POV is excellent.
The large version is a must see.
laugh Man !

Hi Rsy

Howard and Mike are right, some times you have to step back and take in the big picture.

It's a cute one. I like composition Ray and the low angle is great. Nice shot!

Excellent low angle, Ray. Those bubbles really cap this image for me. Sweet job on the Plover as well.
