Linda e depois aquela pena solta a flutuar na agua ficou excelente.

The full splendor of this beautiful bird is perfectly shown the way you processed it, strong and yet subtle!

Beautiful picture even better than the previous one. I like the feather on the surface of the water. You could try to lighten a little the head and the beak (I find them a bit dark but it might be my screen).

Very well captured and well composed. They move so fast, its really hard to capture them sometimes.

:-) O pormenor daquela pena pousada em cima da água, está fantástico.
Uma fotografia aparentemente simples, mas de grande impacto. O facto de ser em preto e branco, foi muito bem pensado.
