Greater Yellowlegs

[Bradley James]

I photographed this Greater Yellowlegs over the weekend on the barrens in Terrenceville, NL. He was keeping an eye on a female as I belly crawled up to capture this image. This appears to be their breeding site as I've seen them here before.

Nikon D7100, 200-400mmF4, Tele 1.4x, ISO400, F6.3, 1/640s

The colours and space work perfectly for me in this one - nice shot

I'm really digging the habitat you got him in here. Nice low angle, and the pose looks good with a nice subtle head angle towards us. This would look great as a pano with about half the water cropped out IMO - and you'd still retain the neat vertical lines along the water.

Well done shot. Like the composition (crop), position of the bird and tone of the colors. It's sharp and BG is well blured. TFS & cheers! Miro
