I love it. Fine job.

Everything about this chick is beautiful Allen. Right place, right time.. Love the dampness on its body.

[Grace Scalzo]

Nothing like a baby to put a smile on my face. Nicely photographed.

[Alan Murphy]

[Joe Murphy]

POV, light & detail all spot on, great shot Allan.

[Frank Schauf]

Very nice pose and colors.

[Miguel Palaviccini]

Allan,

Like that wet feathers on this one. Gives it something a little extra to take it over the top. The viewing perspective is spot on! Any lower and you lose the feet.

Splendid image!

How cute, and the square crop works well. Light and details also look very nice. What looks like some processing artefacts along the bottom (and lower left corner) need to be cleaned up.

[allanrube]

I am happy you liked it. It was fun to watch this chick scurry back and forth.

Thanks Dan for the artifact notice. I rushed this - will fix.

[arash_hazeghi]

excellent portrait of this delicate chick!

[Marina Scarr]

Very well done on this one, Allan. You have wonderful details in this chick and a great low angle. You were blessed with a clean beach. Love how scruffy it looks.

[Girish Prahalad]

lovely image! like the soft details, POV & exp. maybe a bit more DOF to get the feet in focus.

[Bill Dix]

Wonderful shot, Allan. Excellent in all respects - especially the pov and light - as everyone has noted above.

[gail bisson]

A wonderful shot.
I love the light and your low POV.
The squarish frame works well.
I see some funny stuff on the LLC of image from ? cloning. Should be easy to fix.
Otherwise, pretty much perfect,
Gail
