Yesterday, some of the Fab 5 went over to Anhinga Trail to try our luck, and there's always something to bring home :D :D This beautiful specimen made the rounds and I was lucky to get him.

Fantastic shot! It would be nice to have some light under those wings, but then again, snow doesn't fall much in Florida! :lol:

Fabiola:

A touch of selective HS recovery and a touch of "S" curve might help the picture since the harsh light has blocked some of the detail from underside the wings.

Sweet. A little hot on top of the far wing, a nit too small to really mention. Great work getting this. 8)
