Black-winged Stilt

Made on a sunny morning in Great Runn of Kutch, Gujarat, India with Canon 7D, Canon 500mm f4+1.4x TC, ISO 200, f5.6, 1/1250 Sec.

Love to have the other foot visible.

Awesome sharpness lovely head angle . Wish the feet were visible .

The bird is lovely, sharp, well exposed. Eye is excellent. Colors of BG and water work well together.

Only thing lacking is a clear view of both feet.

Cheers

Agree with your self critique on the other foot . The drop of water at the tip of the beak add to this beauty of an image !!!

excellent sharp image .. for me i might give little cropping from bottom for better weight on stilt.

Girish, So, so sharp with a perfect EXP and a good head angle. It is a shame that the bird was not walking on top of the bank :e3

Fantastic detail, exposure and pose. Agree that it would be better with feet showing and without the lower oof foreground.

The sharpness is A+, but I agree with the others that seeing both feet would have been ideal. Nice exposure as well.

Awesome detail, agree on the feet, envy that low ISO. Was this handheld ?
