    Hi Denise: You did a fine job with this capture. I like the way you have framed the BBP. You have a nice head turn, details and a super BG.

    You have really nailed these guys. Perfect BG, head angle, composition and details. Good call on the f-stop.

    Awesome details, great pose, and a particularly pleasing blue hue in the BG! I'm wishing the OOF FG area wasn't so pronounced, but overall very nice!

    Hi Denise - Brilliant shot - Perfection - Ready for Gallery. Feather texture and details, color, light, eye, and bokeh all A+. One of your best in my opinion.

    Love the plumage pattern and light. That clean BG is very complementary. Congrats.

    You're getting quite a wonderful collection of shorebirds, and this is one of my favorites of your so far. Beautiful.

    What a cutie Denise, and very well captured too. I find the OOF cliff in the FG a bit distracting, especially because the rock the Plover is standing on is so sharp in contrast. Feather detail is excellent, TFS
