long week, good fishing
I am handed happiness

PS. Just a bit of pp in Irfanview for tones and light and a bit of sharpening. Oh, and a fair bit of cropping, no rotation.

Posthumous ribbon hog.... hehehe :D How many do you have now? I typically prefer more light on bird shots but your title leads me in a different direction - and I think the processing is perfect for it.

Well it wasn't much of a race since all our scores went the wrong way. But I think I still beat you all ;)

Love the tones in this, striking and looks almost metallic. Congrats for the Posthumous yellow!

I really like the "feel" of your photo...the reflections and the tilt to the shot...it is just a tad dark. I had to look a couple of times to really tell which one was reflection and which one was the bird...
