    Default Black-necked Stilt

    This is one of the beautiful local birds we have that I always enjoy watching and photographing. I hope you like this one. Comments are welcome.

    Another lovely Stilt frame, Lorant, with a unique pose. I like the way the head is nicely framed by the raised wings. Great low POV.

    A beauty Lorant, the low POV really emphasises the great wing position - a bird I'm hoping to get to shoot next year.

    That's a superb image. Perfectly chosen low point of view and a once-in-a-lifetime pose. Color, detail, sharpness and depth of field are excellent.

    Nice work Lorant!

    Beautiful avian specimen indeed!

    The misty BG and FG help the subject stand out and add to the mood and feel of the image overall. And I love those spread-out coppery wings!

    Nice POV, composition, good exposure, IQ is great. A well presented and very pleasing frame, thank you for sharing:)

    Kind regards,
    Gabriela Plesea
