Beautiful Grebe! I wish we had this type in Florida. We just have Pied Billed Grebes here and they are Booring

I love this, the colors are so pleasant to the eyes, and the composition has a nice gentle flow

What a fantastic capture! well done!!
You requested a critique, however as i cant afford a membership I will give you one here
The colors are gorgeous as is the birds pose, (again top capture!) You have fantastic detail in the bird, I would try to brighten the catchlight in the birds eye if you can? The Boken you have in the shot is also wonderful. It looks quite a heavy crop? If so I think if you dropped the bird into the lower left hand corner of the frame (not tight into it though...) and gave it slightly more space to the right it would complement the bird more? you would also lose quite a bit of the in-focus water at the front of the bird thus drawing more focus to the bird. Thats all my own opinion by the way, but i hope it helps?
This is a shot I would of been chuffed to take, I have not managed as half a good a shot of a great crested grebe!

Again well done!!

Thanks Very Much.
I Can Brighten The Catchlight No Trouble But Believe It Or Not
The Reason For The Look Of A Tight Crop Is I Was Shooting
At The Min Focus Of My 500mm. It Was So Close I Could Only Just Focus
And Had To Keep Moving Back While Laying In Front Of It. This Is Just About
The Full Frame I Don't Think I Hardly Cropped At All. LoL
Thanks For The Critique Really Appreciate It.

My pleasure Andy, that explains it! 500mm wow! How are you finding it? With the picture as its full frame you might be able to pull out a gorgeous portrait by cropping into it?
Again my thanks Andy!!!

Thanks
I Was So Close If I Had Come Up Lacking In Detail
I Think I Would Have Given My Gear To The Nearest
Photographer And Walked Away. LoL
