    H John, nice image of a Ruddy Turnstone, most of the ones I see here are in breeding plumage. I wish the far leg was in sharp focus as the near leg, your depth of field must have been extremely shallow. I like the rock perch and the pure background, it sets off the bird nicely. Thank you for sharing.

    Nice walking stride here, and I love how the far foot curves along the surface. Good details, low angle. Perhaps a touch bright overall?

    Classic jetty shot. Good pose, head turn, nice water BG.

    John:

    Nice shooting angle, like the raised foot, detail, small drops, rock.

    Yes to a sliver more DOF.

    Cheers

    very nice indeed John well detailed, just a little more DOF and it would have been just about perfect.
