| Comment | 'Caught in the Act!' I have entered this image as it is technically good and captures the mating act at the crucial moment. I think this composition is interesting with a diagonal shape and a clean background and despite it being a colour image is neutral enough to allow the red beaks and feet to pop. The log in the water anchors the action and has an interesting shape and texture in its own right. Processed in DXOPureRaw, ACR (tweaked BPS Prosets) | ||||||||||||||||||
