Wood Thrush

[Bill Dix]

A worm's eye view, from High Island, TX in April.

D7000, 700mm, ISO 2000, 1/400s @ f/7.1 manual.

Bill:
Sharp, well exposed, great POV, prey item, nice head angle.

I might darken the OOF foreground just a bit.

Cheers

Randy said it well.
I might add that I like the natural grassy habitat and the nice background.

Lovely one, great level
i love the greens and the bird is very nicely exposed
catch is a big add on, love it

[Arthur Morris]

Great bird and image. Perfect EXP and head angle, plus the prey item. Evicting the light piece of grass below and just inside of the bird's right leg is an option that I would exercise.

Superb image Bill. I like the low angle and eye contact and prey item.

[Norm Dulak]

Another beautiful image, Bill, as usual. Everything is outstanding, except IMHO the light, blurred extreme bottom of the frame. Please consider cropping out the lower half of the frame in the space below the bird, and what is already great will become stunning.

Thank you all for the comments and suggestions. Here's a repost that addresses them. Hope you like it.
