    Default Resting Purple Sandpiper

    It's good to see these great little birds back for the Winter, does the 4:3 crop works for this shot?

    Great IQ and BG as well as awesome feather detail. Personally I would probably go for a looser crop. TFS

    Beautiful bird, killer BKGR, wonderful use of d-o-f. The 4x3 works but my preference would be for 3X2. No clue why :0 Good compromise on your choice of perspective.
