    I always click on every shorebird shot. Love me some shorebirds. You have beautiful and soft light and a great blurred background. I love the soft pink tones in the Good walking pose as well. I guess ideally it would have been better with the bird turned slightly away from us and more parallel to the back of the camera. Would have gotten rid of the shadows on the right side of the bird as well. Also looks to me like the image could use a little counter clockwise rotation.

    I like the low angle, walking pose, light and composition. The water droplet on the foot adds to the image. I would clone out the highlight on the tip of the bill. Very well done Chris.
