Grace, I love this guy swimming just above nose level towards you.

I also really like the room you left for him to swim in, nice touch.

Your notes give us an indepth view of what these guys are and their habitats.

wow, they are fast suckers!

Hi there Envision, thanks for sharing this amazing shot of the beaver taking a refreshing swim in the river.. fabulous close up shot of both beaver and rippled surface on the water.. Great array of earthy tones mingled with a bluish tinge on the water. Very interesting notes on the beaver's abilities to swim in and under the water.. Would be handy to have those assets when we go snorkeling in the ocean ourselves..
great photo.. thanks for the ride.. cheers mel

Grace,
A wonderful picture of this Beaver swimming towards you it's nose just above the water eyes watching you & ears pricked to catch every sound the ripples on the water it's creating reflecting the sky above & the trees & bushes along the bank. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Susan

Quite a grand looking nature shot posted here! Here in England we do not benefit from their presence. Your image is well composed, sharp and has good exposure. Nicely taken!

    Thank you! I appreciate your comments about my notes too. That was an abbreviated version since there really so many fascinating things about these guys - but I didn't wanted to write a novel :)

What a great " Coming right at you " capture! It's well focused with good clear details, his colors are natural, lighting is good , I like the water and the ripples showing his motion as he swims toward you. Very well composed and a pleasure to view!

Oh I like this shot. Perfect placement in the photo. The water is nicely rendered and the Beaver is in good focus. Excellent commentary and very informative as I learned some things I was not aware of. Well done Grace ~ Steve
