Least Sandpiper

[Lorant Voros]

I wasn't sure about the composition of this one. I didn't have the full reflection, so I couldn't include that. I was thinking about a square crop too.....ended up posting this one. Comments are welcome.

Nice feather detail and shrpness. I would say the composition is good Lorant. The water looks nice but I still would clean up some of the white spots. I would look better.

I like the crop you chose here. I would even consider taking a little more off the bottom to see what it looked like. I agree with Karl about some more clean-up.

Beautiful portrait, great pose and colours.

Hi Lorant, I feel your comp is fine as is, and I like the angled feeding/drinking pose with the bill partially submerged.

[Robert Holguin]

Great shot. I really like the pose, very nice light, and great pov.
Well done.

Great shooting angle, pose and colors. Subject is sharp and well exposed !

Gorgeous bird with sharp details. I enjoy how the head is angled towards us while foraging...
pretty cool. The composition looks great to me, though I would not mind seeing a bit more on
the right hand side, to include more of the ripples.
