Ruddy Turnstone.

I took this picture more than likely on the Atlantic Coast of Florida, in 2010.
I went to several places during the trip on both, Atlantic and Gulf Coasts, so I'm not quite sure abot the spot.
Thanks for looking.

Sweet detail, light and pose. I'm seeing some pixelation on the water perhaps due to compression.

Thanks, Alan. You are absulutely right. I blew it up to 600% and i also saw this strange pixelation.
I re-done the whole thing now, starting all over. It should be OK. now.

Karl, very nice exposure and detail, good HA.

[Nancy Bell]

Super good with great details, great exposure and pose. I do like that tiny shell just in front of the shadow.

Repost looks much better without the compression artefacts. Neat pose, I'm guessing this guy was preening. I wouldn't mind a bit more room at right, but still good as is.
