Perfect head angle and exposure, clean BG and sharp. I feel it is tight at the bottom, cutting the virtual feet.

Ia gree it is tight in the frame. More room at bottom is a must here, and to a lesser extent maybe a bit more at left too. Nice lokoing yellowlegs, it looks quite relaxed of your presence. Focus looks good, but an additional small dose of USM would make the fine details stand out more. Perfect exposure and pose :-)

Nice sharp picture with clean smooth background. Looks like you take advantage of great light conditions, perhaps a cloudy but bright light.

[Kobus Tollig]

Great pose light exposure and detail. Don't you think its maybe a bit tight at the bottom

[Juan Aragonés]

Nice light and head angle, I have to agree with Fabs and Daniel about the need for more room. Another round of sharpening for web size would be great.

Thanks to all for the feedback. I'll give it just a bit more USM, and a little more space on the bottom and left.
