This might be the lowest angle I've ever achieved on a bird - he looks gigantic! Got soaked, but it was worth it....

Splendid Dorian, so many elements that add up to a top shot. Light, HA, lifted foot, reflection, diffused BG and of course viewpoint as low as you could go without digging a hole.
hi Dorian,
very good comp and technic.
congratulations
10/10 from me Dorian.
Checks all the boxes - gorgeous light and a prime angle, slight head turn, sharp across the whole focal plane, slight head turn and even the raised foot.
Absolutely beautiful pastel blue palette. You rocked this one!
Another equally beautiful frame as the previous image.
Well done,
Gail
Love this one too but liked the first one where the white of the wave is more subdued.
with love, a
ps: a question you missed on your scoter head shot: Was the bird out of the water or swimming? I would assume the former.

sweet frame Dorian, POV rocks and the pastels throughout really compliment the whimbrel. HA and foot up is super
Swimming! I was in my kayak!Originally Posted by Arthur Morris
Nice to see the bird facing the opposite way. I like the pose with the raised foot. Any lower you would have to dig a hole.
getting muddy paid dividends. excellent frame. if mine I'd bump the warmth a bit
