Great pose. I just wished the water would catch more of this nice light.

Nice photo. The preening really adds a lot.

Rich, this is way cool, with the preening behavior putting it over the top.

I would crop it from...lol, just kidding :D

Best,

Didn't expect it to be quite so high-key based on the title, but the little guy does really pop out from the water and the pose and preening really make the shot.

Love your grebe shots, this one is no exception. I like the high key with ripples.

We would never notice such a thing. I would prefer the mids toned down a bit but still good as it is.
