Oh helvi this is beautiful. I love loons and only see them when I go about 6 hours north. This brought me such fond memories back to hearing their call. Gorgeous colors of blue in this piece. I absolutely love it!

    Hi Jodi, it's very rare for me to see a loon too! I get to go up to my brother's camp in Maine twice a year and that's the only place I've ever seen them. I can't remember the last time I saw one. I was very lucky to see a pair this year. Looking forward to a second trip on Labor day this year. I"m so glad you enjoyed the shot! I love
    Loons too! Thanks for the great review ! :o) Nancy
Comment from supergold


a great capture Nancy of this very beautiful bird, never seen before and never heard about; I prefer however just natural looking birds, without changes;

    HI Super, I understand completely that you'd rather see a natural shot of this beautiful waterbird. I'm glad that I got to introduce you to this shy bird. The sound of the Loon is as pretty as the bird itself. You should listen to it online sometime. The bird is a diver and catches fish. I saw it go down several times while I was taking pictures of it. I'm glad you enjoyed the shot even though it was a Mixed Media Image. :o) Nancy

The mixed photography is so nice, artist friend Nancy. The Loon(s) is/are (one or two pictured? I've never seen a loon before phtographed so clearly) especially nice with the patterns and shapes, and like a faint light line drawn around all but the bottom. Fine water with details shown. Fine photography indeed!

    Hi Glena, It's one Loon. I would have loved to have gotten both Loons in one shot but they didn't cooperate! LOL I'm glad you liked my lone Loon. Thanks for the great review My Friend! :o) Nancy

    Welcome, artist friend Nancy. I thought it was just one. Like the sparkly body too. Fine work indeed!

    Hi Carina, I definitely had a beautiful subject to work with! Bless you for all your kind words and incredible rating! I have the feeling if you painted a Loon it would be off the charts gorgeous! :o) Nancy

A good looking nature image posted here! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of that beautiful bird. Colours, textures and tones are good.
Nicely created!

Nancy,
A beautiful picture of the Loon looking out into the far distance the sunlight sparkling in it's red eye while highlighting it's dark white patterned & striped plumage that along with the sky is reflected on the surrounding rippled water. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.
Susan

This is a beautiful content, so well created, as I love all animals and this one is so super with such a special color combinations and even super sections that it is outstanding for sure, and your super mixed medial applications have created a perfect content inside the water, so your presentation is for sure very attractive for me, my dear friend, xoxo

Hi Nancy!
That's a very enjoyable picture,my friend!
The Loon itself makes for a refreshingly 'out of the ordinary' subject for a 'waterbird pic' and the 'mixed media' presentation is,like,really cool!
'Good Show',my friend!

You did a fine job rendering a Natural looking photograph with all your digital editing. It always fascinates me to see what you come up with. I love your loon! The eye is great! The water is beautiful! I'm glad you got your wish to capture one so pretty!
