From last evening. Strong South winds and many people enjoying the first warm day of spring made photography a challenge. This image is a larger crop than I prefer and is beginning to suffer from it, but it is a behavior that I have always wanted to capture and will keep this until I get something better. Some white shells removed from the background.
Great fully stretched wing. And what balance! Beautiful light and low POV as usual. Love the way the bird stands out against the dark beach. Nice to see the Plovers back.
My favorite shorebird pose! You did well despite the conditions you describe and the large crop. The bird's pale plumage looks great against the slate grey BG.
Hi Grace
Looks pretty good to me - and the typical wader stretch so typical, ans its great the way the subject jumps out of the dak backdrop. The IQ only seems to suffer when you start pixel peeping
Good stuff.
