    It was nice to find them out of the water and on the beach.

    Kiranbhai, super comp and pose, and I like the layered BG. The legs seem to be a little oversaturated.

    I like the comp and pose of the bird on this very much. The neck and head seem a little bright, but it's hard to tell without seeing the histogram. The legs are very colorful, but again I would double check the histogram to see how everything looks.

    Kiran;

    Impossibly long legs! Your bird jumps off the background well. Good shooting angle. Find myself wondering how it would look if you could have gone even lower to throw the BG even further out of focus. Perhaps not possible.

    Perfect head angle for this pose.

    Cheers

    Thanks Stuart Bhai, I did not do any perticular work on the leg, But do agree with you, I have reduced the saturation in the legs, I dont know if it looks ok.

    Thanks Bryan Bhai, I have also reduced the brightness on the head and neck.

    Thank you Randy bhai, I could have gone a bit more lower but had to look to for the bird did not look good so I put the tripod to about 2.5 feet on made this,

    Thank you all so much for you kind words and suggestions, Really appreciate it..

    Regards,

    Kiran

    Great shot. I like the walking pose. Wonderful background. The soft and warm light is great. Wonderful colors and great composition.

    Hey Kiran,

    Great image, I can't make my mind if I like the original or
    re-post more. Great colors and nice shot of the entire bird
    including the feet. Hope to see more of these from you.
