This guy was one of a few from the other day at a lake near Amarillo. Let me know what you think.

Hi Trey,

Very nice pose and low angle. I see some noise in the BG which can be removed. I wish the foot was sharper.

I like it, love the raised foot. Agree with Maxis on the need for a bit more sharpening. I like the light and the colors but the base of the base of the bill looks a bit corroded... Easy to repair with the Polygonal Lasso and the Clone Tool.

Cool image. Love the walking pose, the breeding colors and the soft bg.
On my screen the bird including the raised foot is sharp :)
Really my style.

Thanks for you comments. I will try and fix it up a little.
