    Excellent shot Grace, especially with the 2X attached! The IQ is very good indeed.

    Grace,

    Wonderful capture. Love the low angle, exposure on the whites, head turn, and crab. You were low enough to get a pleasing bg, but high enough to get some feet in the image (perfect amount, I say).

    Maybe a version with just a tad more room all around? Either way, this is a keeper!

    Terrific capture, Grace. Love the behavior and all of the details. The light was gorgeous, too, and I like the layers in the BG and the low angle.!

    Hi Grace, brilliant IQ, and just love the low perspective. The gull is well exposed, and the detail around the crab and gull are top notch.

    Beautiful light and I like the low perspective. The detail is excellent - great detail in the gull's eye, the background is smooth I can see the gull's feet - can't fault it - excellent.

    Nice low angle. Tack sharp too. BG and subjects all work well here. He was probably in a crabby mood anyway : )
