Not a criticism, but went to our local camera club last night and had a professional critique images members submitted. Someone had two similar to this and his critique was to not shoot down on the birds, but to get down low so you are on the same level with the birds. I hope this helps in your endeavors. Gary

Here's the thing; if I were to have done that , I would have :

1. been right on top of these birds and they
would all have flown away.

2. gotten really wet.

3. not achieved that particular angle of shot, which
is what I was striving for.

Rob,

If this comment is to me, I am not being critical, just passing on what a professional photog talked with us about at last nights meeting. By the way he is always in the water up to his waist to get his award winning images. I for one do not get wet. Gary
