    Hi Jeroen, This is a very nice image. The bird's pose with lifted right leg and ruffled feathers is very dynamic. The image is sharp and the BG well diffused and good contrast with the bird.If there was a little more catchlight, this would be an even more livelier image. Thanks for sharing

    Great pose and BG. If this is not full frame, I might put the bird a little lower in the frame.

    You know I get all tingly every time I see one of your godwits.......they are all favorites. Another wonderful image.....details, BG, action with the ruffled feathers and raised foot are all terrific. You do such an amazing job.........all I can do is drool.

    Love those ruffled feathers and the green background to pick up the green on the pole.
