Very nice detail with a click- great job with the exposure- black/dark brown is hard to get just right when contrasted with bright white. I've never seen one fly- always in the water.

Another excellent Surf Scooter image, Axel. You certainly have a fine location for East Coast waterfowl photography, with all the different species posted here on Naturescapes.

A great location, wonderful species - and most important, an expert behind the camera! Superb capture with perfect exposure for the challenging darks and wonderful detail, Axel!
