    How do you like this image? The sandpiper was followed by a 'mud' fly while feeding.
    Taken nearby my home at a drained fishpond.

    Cheers, Szimi

    Nicely done. Love the low perspective and the position of the fly. Wish only for slightly better head turn.

    Great angle, details and the bug adds to it. Maybe a bit NR on the BG. That is one muddy foot. :)

    I love the low angle and shallow DOF. The muddy foot is a plus and gives the viewer a subtle tip as to what type of habitat this is (pond, river, beach, etc.). Well done. Like Arthur, I only wish for a slight head turn.

    I don't mind the head turn, but a bit more would probably be more effective. Great capture with the insect. Low angle is super! :)
