I took this image during a trip to Arizona a few months back, the simplicity of the bkg appealed to me.

As always C&C is welcomed and appreciated
Thanks, Chad

Elegant pose with a great view of the feet and those longs legs. Sharp, perfect EXP. Did the mud have a reddish hue?

Lovely capture, Chad. You have a great BG and colors work together. I never realized this bird's legs were blue.

Thank you Artie, yes the mud was red, it was that oh so famous Arizona red dirt. :S3:
