Marbled Godwit

This is from my outing with James Shadle in early September, taken on a sand bar around a small island in Tampa Bay just outside the mouth of the Alafia River

I like the pose, the slightly opened mouth, water drops, and wave behind the feet. Excellent exposure - sharp as a tack!!

[Gary Esman]

Agree with Allan very nicely done!

[Jim Fenton]

Agree with the others comments but would like to see it just a tad brighter perhaps?

[Aidan Briggs]

Nice light, low angle, and feeding pose. I like the blue water!
