    Very nice pose from this sweet little Plover. Good low POV. The eye seems a bit cloudy, reflecting, of course, the cloudy day. I might be tempted to darken the pupil just a tad.

    Perfect light for white birds. I love the low perspective. The eye definitely looks a bit funky--not sure why.

    I like the diffused light, shallow DOF and low angle.
