Hi Alan,

Like the light levels and the exposure looks good, I would just prefer a 'smarter' pose from the bird, though thats just being picky!

Cheers

Mark

As for the "pose", wait till shot #2

Hi Alan

I like the lighting and the colours in the water, it's a pity the bird has half closed it's eye which doesn't help the bird 'pop'
