Double-crested Cormorant Portrait

Tony Britton

Hello,

I wanted to share this Double-crested Cormorant image with you. The cormorant and I were on two opposite floating docks at a harbor and it was fun trying to time the shot as we were bobbing up & down completely out of sync. This photo was taken with my Canon SX50 and has not been cropped. I post-process my images using Photoshop Elements 12 and Topaz DeNoise software.

I hope you enjoy this beautiful bird! The name Cormorant means "Sea Raven."

Best regards,

Tony

I love the clarity of the eyes and body features, very nice!

You might want to consider embedding the photos from your smugmug site instead of attaching them. That allows you to place more than one photo in a post and it gives a better viewing experience as well. If you're interested in trying this method, see How to Embed an Image in Your Post.

Hi Denise,

Thanks for the recommendation regarding the embedding of future photos. I simply resized the image to 800 x 600 for this cormorant image.

You have a wonderful smugmug website. Great work!

Take care,

Tony
