I said, "NO" photographs

If they haven't gone fishing they sit preening all day or seem to. Cormorants make great subjects imho.

Thanks for looking

Much better than your previous shot I saw, although it is rather tight at the bottom, easily fixed, can’t help feeling that a vertical might have worked better, I would have at least looked at it as a possibility. Well seen and taken.

Barry, from your posts, I sense that you are hungry to learn, might I suggest that you see if you can tag along with some of those who post on here, it was what I did. I got lucky, and finally contacted a member on this forum, we met up and I learnt far more from him in one day, than I ever did on all the courses and workshops I have been on. His fees are high, the cost of a cup of tea, but he did supply lunch in the form of a Sub-Way. In fact I have now been out several times with him, and each time what I learn has helped me no end, with my photography. Give it a go, what have you got to lose.

Terrific pose, love the expression.

Splendid shot, like the pose and the shout!

Good expression and well caught

Thanks for the comments, John that is a great idea if anyone is prepared to have a shadow tag along for a while I'll travel and buy the tea. I'm home until the new year.

Any offer please shoot me an e-mail.

Barry,

the pose from the bird is great.... I assume its raw, if so I do think a lot more can be extracted...

Will email you in the next few days, will be e a little busy first part of this week.

Great pose and I like the perch too, just needs a little more canvas at the bottom, nice one Barry.

Andy...

Nits covered, a very nice image indeed, one of your best so far methinks, well done.
