Were you flat on the mud? Seems a little higher Flat should have drastically changed the bg Excellent looking bird and pose Well exposed and sharp Not much you could do !!!

I was on my elbows however the shoreline sloped down some. I really love images from the ground, it wasn't until I saw Artie's work that I really fell in love with this. I hope to do lots more of this in the spring!
