    Default Semipalmated Plover (South Carolina)

    This is a different individual bird photographed at the same location as my previous shot.

    More head turn would've been nice, but the extended wing minimizes that shortcoming.

    .... Bravo and Bravissimo Dorian
    Absolute Killer image and I love it ....

    I would just extend the canvas all around ... but this is minor and just personal taste

    Super pose, beautiful colours and details, I agree a minor issue but I also feel a little tight in the frame.

    Spectacular light and double-overhead wing stretch. And light! Definitely needs a bit of canvas out front as there is more room behind the tail than in front of the bill tip.
