I shot this image of a common subject in late January on a very cold grey day in Port Credit by the Credit River. For me at least, I like the positioning against the others in the flock and the intense stare. I realize I cut off the wing tips but I like the layering of these three so I thought it might be worth sharing. Comments & suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Nicely framed. The eye contact really makes this.

Hey Jeff, I agree with your own critique, The stare draws you in past the other layers.
