Funny, I just posted my own Ruddy Turnstone over on Wild and Free. I like the way you caught the bird in mid-stride. Sharpness is good and I like the blue of the water. I'd run some NR on the BG, and I'd try to bring out a little more detail in the dark areas using Shadows/ Highlights.

Hi Gene - love the low angle - agree with doug's assesment.
Keep them coming.

Nicely done Gene...I like it, good head angle and nice vibrant colors...:cool:

[Alfred Forns]

Fully agree with Doug !!! Can add I would like to see a better light angle for lighting the tail and maybe a little more room Excellent image and great feel !!!!

Hi Gene, great exposure and I like the vibrant colors.

Very nice!!

Love the image, I would just crop a little off the top. Like how you captured him in "stroll" mode. Great colours and exposure.

Hi Gene,
Great photo! Eye and beak are sharp and I love that stride.
