I have really enjoyed this series of sanderlings. this one in particular has a dream like quality about it. Ideally I would have liked to have seen at least one foot, and I think just maybe a little more space to the left.
Neat colours to the BG and patterns to the FG. Well exposed subject and well detailed as posted. It is tucked in a bit tight at left and bottom, and although the HA is parallel to the sensor and not "bad" it would have been awesome to get it turned a bit towards us by a few degrees. I too have liked your Sanderling series...
Very nice on both posts, I like the softness of the ground on this one. The whites look good to me, and it has nice feather detail. I think I see a little blur on the lower part of his left leg.
