Very Very Nice. Shows you don't need to alter a photo beyond recognition to get a good shot. Just patience and the right moment

Audubon would have praised this image and he probably would have envied the artist.

This is an outstanding photo. The composition draws one directly into the picture's atmosphere, and the timing is exquisite. I hope to see more of this man's work in the Smithsonian magazine.

Walking on water is not so hard! Capturing it is!

One of those photos that catches the eye long enough to pause, take reference, ooh and ah, and start all over again. Stunning...best of luck.....MORE!

Practically perfect photo! I would love to buy a copy to frame and hang. Until Katrina washed away my home, I watched and photographed these extraordinary birds in the lagoon in my Mississippi gulf coast back yard. All my photos are gone, along with the house and the lagoon. How can I get a copy?

Absolutely gorgeous! Fantastic detail and composition.

Shall we dance? Look at the photo again and think of ths question.
Posted by Tim on May 24,2009 | 08:47AM
holy cow this is by far one of the besr shots ive seen in a while.
Posted by Tyler on May 30,2009 | 04:36PM
Beautiful. One of the best bird shots I've seen. Also inspiring to us amateur photographers.
Posted by Lisa Smith on June 26,2009 | 10:28PM
Your gift should be shared - for the sake of saving the beasts of the earth... and the earth.
Practically speaking, you should be working for National Geographic.
I have never seen a photograph with so much movement, contrast, and detail all at once.
Struggling to find the words to express my awe and appreciation -
Astonishing! just - - thank you.

Extraordinary shot Don! If you're selling prints, I'd love one.

The best part of the contest experience for me are the many wonderful and generous comments I have received. Thanks to all of you for making my efforts in photography meaningful.
