I like the loon's action here - something I can't recall seeing posted before.

The image appears rather low in contrast. I assume the light you were working with was flat, but it hurts the image IMO.

Great pose and this one pops from the bg much better, Peter.  The head does look a little soft to me, but you should have been in good shape with those shooting parameters unless this was a largish crop.

Good posing shot. Would be good if you could tease a little  more detail in the neck area.
