    I like the low angle, sharpness, muddy foot, mud drops and BG. I feel it needs a little CW rotation. Nice image Vivaldo.

    Real nice shot. I really like the pose, love the mud drops, and great low angle.
    Well done.

    Hi Vivaldo,
    A new species for me!
    I like the mud droplets. low angle and layered BG.
    Needs some CW rotation.
    I find the image quite contrasty and the IQ is not up to your usual excellent standard. Not sure why but colors look muddy ( pardon the pun!)

    Thanks for honest comments, IQ could be better and it maybe due to large crop.

    Love the flying mud drops and good low angle. I agree with rotation, and too bad it is already heavily cropped as I would have preferred a tighter crop top and left. VERY similar to our snipes!!
