I still like this bird:). Nice walking pose, intense look, light, colors. I feel it could use some room above and maybe less below, though I understand if you wanted to include the wave. A little head turn towards us would not hurt, but I think this image works as it is. TFS.

IMO, a little lefter might have been better. Lovely image though!

Joe, nice shot of this dark morph, nice details I also would like to see a little bit more room on top but that's just me :bg3:

Fabulous detail on the bird Joe. I really like the striding pose. The sea in the BG blending with the FG makes for a lovely looking image.

I agree with the comments. A bit more room at the top would be nice.
