    Nice one....Great pose and POV. I like your crop. Lovely feather detail....maybe try less contrast ....Nice BG colours which show the bird well.

    Pretty much perfect! I only wish the tip of the toe was not obstructed, and for the subject to be a touch higher in the frame. Excellent details, and I love the marbled BG. Good stuff!

    Nice you caught one eye level. Classic jetty setting as well. A nice pose and light.

    ahhh the slippery jetty... looks terrific Bill, and love the wee bit of "purple" iridescence you caught. Very nice.

    Good one, Bill. Beautiful light, and I like the low walking stance.
