Nice low angle and I like the visible foot. Beautiful BG. Harsh light, but you did best you could. Although the whites are not blown, I'd still experiment in toning them down a bit...there might be a bit more detail hidden in them, especially below the wing.

This to me looks like a Lesser Yellowlegs instead of a Greater, since the bill is about the size of the head. Nice low angle, agree with Daniel on the whites.

[Karl Egressy]

Nice picture. Love the low angle and the nice fether details. The raised foot adds to it.

Super low angle of capture, and feeding pose with the raised foot. You have nailed the sharpness nicely, and I like the colours in the BG.

Lovely ground level Shot and lovely light on the bird
