Great catch! Maybe a tad Cyan on the second one? Probably late in the evening, I suppose, always difficult WB. Maybe in B&W?

Ali - Thank you.

 

Jaap - Thank you, and you're right about the cast. I'll have to adjust it. This was relatively early in the morning, but perhaps more importantly, it was shaded.

Stuart,

 

A fine pair. Isn't it unusual to find these critters out in the open during the day?

Dee - Thank you.

 

Hank - Thank you. Actually, they do spend most of their "river" time underwater, usually surfacing just for breaths and/or navigation. this one hauled out briefly to eat a fish it had caught, and then went back into the water right away. Those photos are blurred.
