'landing' on water

Very crisp shot with very nice and strong colors!

Pierre,

it's the light in this part of the world (Western Australia) which makes 'writing with light' , photography, such a joy.

Thanks very much for your enthusiasm for this image of a rather ungainly bird moving so graciously.

Cheers!

Nice work.  Colors are beautiful.  The whites are a bit overexposed on the back and wing to the point where the details are lost.  If you shot this in raw you might be able to bring them back.  I believe the image could use a little more space an the right.  Well done.

John

I can't redo this scene, but I'll keep your advice in mind when trying again to 'shoot' some other lovely bird.

Cheers!

Sam.
