Another Plover

[Paul Burdett]

Here's another Pacific Golden Plover from a number of shots taken recently. I know the F/G is not ideal for some, but birds go where they want to go:bg3: and I'm fine with it. Basic adjustments in ACR and PS.

D500/500PF, 1/2000th sec@f8, iso1000. Cheers.

Good mid-yawn pose, sharp details, and excellent "look-back" head angle. Not an ideal FG as you point out. I'd be tempted to darken the wing feathers as the high sun gave those a bit of a washed out look to them. Maybe a bit more room all around if you have it. Our shorebird season is over for this year, glad I am seeing some of yours!

Hi Daniel. Thanks for the feedback. I do have more room around but thought there was too much empty space. How much more would you suggest?

Love those back feathers!
