    Ian I get the impression the darker elements have been brightened too much, especially in the turnstone.

    Thanks, Jonathan. It is only the turnstone's head that was brightened as it was in deep shadow, but I'll go back and play some more.

    Quite a cute image Ian, have you got anymore, I would have liked to see one with both birds facing us. I like the POV, it's different. Well done and thanks for sharing

    I wish I did, William. I have several of the Turnstone and several of the Whimbrel, but this is the only image where both are in focus.

    Nice catch, getting them both together like that Ian--they've even got the same foot forward.
