Thanks Jan, I was shooting into the sun. I'll have to go back at sunset so it will be behind me.
I understand that "Shooting into the Sun", is usually perceived as bad practice, but in this instance, I believe it is the main driver that puts the subject very perceivably at the forefront of the image. Back-lighting adds depth and dimension to the subject. Shooting with the Sun behind you at Sunset, will produce the much desired "Golden Hour" look, and that is OK. It is not the only way though. I don't think you would have gotten the depth in these images with direct Sunlight. IMHO.

I agree with you Jan, that's why I shot away. But since the pond is so close to me it's not much effort to return near sunset and try again! The results might not be better, but it'll be fun!

Beautiful shots. Was there any post processing? I'm amazed at the richness of the colors. I'm a newly, I would love to achieve such amazing richness in my photos.

They are all jepgs out of the camera, but I did some contrast boosting and sharpening with the program that comes in windows 10. For wildlife and landscape I keep my nikons set on vivid color!
