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.

[Daniel Cadieux]

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!!

Great picture, nice deep shooting position and great eye contact.
