I think you did a really good job of salvaging this image in really poor light conditions.   I like the pose and wing position here.

I agree hard to get the dark detail with that light. Love the pose. I notice one thing about the horizontal orientation because I have done it in the past. The water looks like it is runing out the right side of the image. It needs a little counter clockwise rotation.  IMO

A really nice pose, Peter.  I think you could get away with brightening the image a trifle.  I think you do most of your processing in LR, so you might play with the Local Adjustments and try adding some brightness and maybe some contrast to the Loon without affecting the bg to make it pop a bit more.
