I don't see that many pics of the king eider on here. Nice exposure and detail. I'm not sure about the swimming "uphill" view. . . Where did you catch this one?

The quality is great and I agree making the photo level would help. The waves create a ripple and the tow most distant points on opposite sides of the oval should be at the same height if you want the photo to appear level.

This is a very pretty bird and a new one for me Doc

I think he was swimming up hill actually, that would explain the hiking boots that I saw strapped to his feet.
Lots of mountains in Alaska as you know.

This was a zoom into the KE swimming aware from me....hence the perspective or optical illusion.

Good feedback....thanks.

Dave, this was a bird at the SeaLife Center in Seward. Wish I had the resources and the ability to find these guys in the wild....way way north.

Morris, thanks also. Lopsided vignette needed due to the ugly background. Very good points though. I tried to salvage a good picture from a generally awful composition.

Hearing constructive criticism is good for the brain.......putting it to use is good for the soul. One of the reasons I enjoy hanging out in these parts
