Thanks Rejith! Very nice to hear from you. Greetings from SoCal! :-)

I got one too, no where near as beautiful as yours.  Great lighting.

Thanks Douglas! Actually, it would have been a lot better if I had some sunshine. Took this last Sunday when it's cloudy and the water is so dirty. The only saving grace is the smooth water of early morning, I like to shoot in early morning since that is when the water surface is calm and smooth. In the afternoon, we generally get 8,9 mph wind and the water becomes choppy.

Fantastic shot!!! Really nice!

Thanks Patrick! Good to hear from you. :-)

Hi Tm J,

Beautiful Grebe with a lot of fine details. The water droplets are nice to watch. Best regards Per.

Thanks Per! A few week back someone posted a Horned Grebe image from Sweden and that specie is much better looking than this one. :-)
