Great exposure and low angle. I might sharpen the bird a bit more. The vertical comp works, but I might prefer horizontal framing on this one.

Looking forward to more!

I like the pose, eye contact and sand mound and agree with Aidan regarding sharpening.

Love the action you captured in this image and the beautiful clean BG. Great eye contact and lovely detail.. I like it as presented as I find it quite dramatic. Very nice !!

[Michael Zajac]

I lost some of the sharpening putting it in the form.

Hey Michael.
Have had some of the same sharpness issue.....not sure why:(? In any case....pose/comp/ and wingspread are super!!! The isolation and environs are top notch!!!!

[arash_hazeghi]

excellent wing position and pose, agree sharpening needs to be reworked.

[Fabs Forns]

Very cute, he looks like he's playing in a sandbox. Good EXP and detail.

[Bill Jobes]

Cute bird, dynamic action, feet in the sand -- what more to ask? :)

Very pleasing image, Michael.

[Susan Candelario]

Can't add much more than already said. Great job, Michael!
