Juvenile Sanderling (winter molt)

[Brian Barcelos]

Here is another one from the other day. I also had to clone out another Sanderlings bum from the left hand side. All C/C appreciated.

Nice and sharp and the blue is lovely, Brian. While there is no clipping some of the white looks very bright without detail. Linear burn brings back a bit of detail so may be worth trying but I suspect reprocessing the original may be better. Pale blob behind the beak is a bit distracting and a little more room all round would be nice. Burning in the bright reflection on the rock would also be worth a try.

Brian, Nice sharpness and pose. It's a bit tight in frame for my taste and I agree w/ toning down the whites. Another vote to clone the white spot. Beautiful blue BG. and the rock is a real bonus.I never get to see them on rocks. Looking forward to your next one.

I feel you have exposed this nicely Brian, and I like the wing detail. I would take off the top and bottom and add to the left to create a traditional horizontal crop.
