    I tried this ground level shot as these birds were looking awesome with their breeding plumes on the green of the short grass on the lakebed this image was shot in. missed the legs. but on field i find it difficult to get it all perfect!!! :)

    Hi Ramesh Love the low angle for this one and its fine to have the feet out of sight, might just crop a little form the bottom, don't think you need so much oof grass !! Might also take a tiny bit from the back !!

    It is s sweet looking bird, excellent pose and love how the whites look!! PS work also looks mighty fine !! Big Congrats !!!

    Even the HA looks fine to me, I don't think it's necessary to have it looking at you every time. Surely! :D Nice light and I am OK with missing feet. At least we know they are there somewhere. ;)

    Agree with all, perhaps a slight rise in your angle , would reduce lower border, and detail more leg, and possible feet, well done regardless!
