    Love the light and the water drops in the rear. The drop under the neck is a bit of a distraction to me, I tried to wipe it off my screen. But very nice job with this guy!

    Great one! Nice sharpness, color and comp, i esp. love the color palette, agree about the drop under the neck, it does distract.
    Just a wild thought, do you have more room with more drops right? that would be an unconventional, yet IMO an unconventional take...

    Amazing IQ Arash, and the avocet pops so well from the BG. Wonderful light and colours, sharp, and the droplets do add. Congrats on a fine image.

    Fantastic colors, IQ. Looks like you manage to get many good BIF shots with the 5DMKII.

    Terrific pose and light, love the BG colors and detail in the plumage. You are certainly getting a lot of mileage off the 5d2 :)
    You can try my 1d4 when you come visit.

    Awesome shot. Great wing pose, perfect light, exposure and sharpness. The water drops are a wonderful bonus.
