Just posted some images of a Black Throated Diver which was seen today at Burton Riggs YWT Reserve, Scarborough, UK. This is the first time i have submitted an image as i have only just regestered with birdforum and i am new to the setup.

great images. Only comment is that pics 1 and 2 are slightly out-of-focus in my opinion on the bird's face. I really like pic 3 - the subtle ripples on the water dappled by light, and the s-shape of the diver is really nice. Keep it up.

Cool. Do you have those birds around in summer plumage? I never get close views except once in Iceland, of divers.

Darn good start!! You could make add a bit more sharpness and pop in your processing but that will evolve as you find a workflow that suits you.

And you could send that Diver over here when you're finished.
