Hi Annick,

Beautiful capture of this lovely grebe with the babes. So cute the way the one is resting its head on the wings. Wonderful colors and details and a charming scene.

Hello Annick,
A really beautiful shot! You have captured the grebe with lovely sharp focus and made her look very elegant! According to your notes she must be off for a good night out!
Kind regards,
Bev :-)

A shot taken carefully to show the special features of the Grabe...." A mother and children".Exposure, sharpness and composition clear, what your picture says.

Hey Annick,
Nice colors and good exposure here..Great details, but maybe more DOF from this plane of focus would be better? The head/beak looks a bit soft..Just a thought.
As good as this camera is supposed to be, I wouldn't be shooting anything that moves at less than ISO 400
Well done.

Well - you know that you're playing the cute card here. And it works. How neat is that the little one taken under the wings. Great shot. Though Howard might have a point - it's however, at least not in my book, nothing that would be in the nit category.
Good one - especially like the faint reflection.
Cheers, Klaus

Hi Annick

I am still yet to find a Crested Grebe close enough to photograph, and here you have a Crested Grebe with passengers... some people have all the luck! Congrats my friend, I am very fortunate to see this sight through your lens... thank you!

Hello Annick,
I'm afraid I missed the boat yesterday, but this is a wonderful capture! Very well-timed and in beautiful light. Great sharpness and lovely colours. I like the colour of the water and the reflection in it too. Very clever shot!
Many thanks and regards, Ulla

Hello Annick,

Very good picture of this Grebe! Good exposition and great details on the feathers... The only negative point is that your POV is not at its best... It should have been better to kneel or sit to be at the grebe level...

Anyway it is a very interesting picture!

TFS,

Michel

Hello Annick,
Superb capture!
Excellent pose, composition, lighting and sharpness and this together withe reflection in the water contributes to one of the best images of a Great Crested Grebe that I have seen on TN.
Well done and TFS!

Hi Annick,
this is a very good picture with a great and lovely action,
it reminds me of my
Taxi-Ride but yours are better.
Pretty good sharpness, well composed and beautiful colours.
The cutefactor is very high.
Great work.

I do like the look of these Grebes, but to see these babies on her back - just wonderful. And what strange looking baby Grebes. Well captured Annick
