    Fantastic detail and low angle. Great light and colours. Wish the oof stuff in front of the legs wasn't there and the oof strips in the BG were removed but still an awesome image.

    Killer cute with a nice look-back head angle. The o-o-f ?? on the right is a bummer. I don't mind the sand ridge on the right. Opening up the eye a bit would improve this; remember: when you expose properly for the whites the blacks are two stops under...

    The Least Terns numbers are way down compared to previous years. I will go back there this week, we should have some chicks by then.

    Very cute and actually I like the oof sand in the background. Gives the image an artistic feeling. Well done.

    Adorable chick, dreamy feeling to the image overall. Personally, I enhance that feel by blurring the in-focus bits of sand on the right as they attract my eye and also would try and do something about the oof green in the bg.

    There is so much about this I like. The low angle, detail, two tone BG

    Like it as presented Adams Suggested tweaks could help make it even better !! High cuteness appeal and difficult to get your eyes from the chick !!! Sweet !!!

    Adams, I like this style of yours a lot. One heck of a shot. Nothing to suggest....just pure 'well done' image. will work well in vertical 8 X 10 ratio as well I think.
