    Default Greater Yellowlegs with snack

    One from yesterday at mangrove world:).I left the little mangrove plant, despite I'd prefer if it was more in the depth of the bird and it was in focus. Comments are welcome.

    I like the low angle, feeding pose, light, exposure and sweet BG. Composition wise I would take a little off the bottom and clone out the orange reflection just to the right of the leg reflection. Beautiful image Lorant.

    Superb light, low angle and pose. I agree on taking a bit of the bottom and maybe adding a bit to the left. Also finding the oof leaf a bit distracting but some may argue that it adds to the comp.

    Lovely image Lorant. Nice details and colours on the bird. Perfect POV, and I would have left the plant aswell, I think it looks good where it is placed. Good work .

    Nice shot, Lorant. The open beak with the crab and the plant to the right add interest.

    Nice low shooting angle, but high enough to show the crab. Love the bg and the fg. Perfect HA. Agree with Jim about cloning out the orange from the reflection. A solid image!
