    The soft layers of backlighting offset the cormorant perfectly here. The feather detail is very nice and the mood is perfect.

    Beautyful backlight shot Debra. The golden colour of the water is just amazing to make the bird a star. Appreciate also the gentle touch of golden sun on the long feathers wings tip.

    I love how the bird is in sharp focus with the background blurred. Lovely.
