I can imagine the fact that I am so ugly that he had to shout the way he did on the moment I took this photograph:o

Very nice image. Lovely action and nice low level.
I find the image a bit pale. As I checked it could be due to the too much reducing highlights which makes the image grey. In Aperture I achieved to get a bright image without hot areas in the flank.
Anyway I really like it.

Hoi Alex!
Pretty image for an ugly bird! The eye and the wide open beak and tongue are really great. Blacks on the head don't seem to have much detail - tricky with the black and white head, eh? Otherwise nice detail. Perhaps a little tight on the crop, I would be tempted to give it more space at the tail. BUt what do I know...

Terrific pose, great natural moment, great timing to capture the screaming! Nice light, pose, comp ,BG, detail and colors. Congratulations!
Seems to be a run on the Crowned Lapwings/Plovers! Great to catch the alarm call so well. Typical winter grass.

too good. what an expressions you have caught here. would sure love to see this with some space on right and without border as senior's mentioned.
Love the pose and expression, low shooting position sets him in the great bg well. Exposure and detail top notch as usual.

I'm with Ramon. Exposure is great. Black on head are very small feathers and I don't think anyone would get detail from it unless you take a head shot. Well done on this
Super exposure and timing! Love the pose and light soft enough for a decent exposure.
I'lle try to find a other type of border/copyright sign that will be less distracting Arthur:)Originally Posted by Arthur Morris
