    You have some really nice pictures of this bird, Arahs. Like the pose, but what I like most about this is the BG that gives an interesting feel for the picture. Well done.

    Great banking pose, exposure, sharpness and eye contact. The unusual color of the clouds adds to it. I might crop it a little wider.

    Arash:
    Nice dorsal view, banking pose, display of curved bill, excellent angle in frame.
    BG as mentioned is very nice, just enough detail to add interest without being distracting.
    +1 on more room in front.

    Cheers

    Randy

    Excellent banking pose. Good colours and nice different BG colours. I would also like to see this with a wider crop. TFS

    Arash, you certainly have got your monies worth with your Avocets. Another spectacular capture showing the dorsal view, sharp, and I like the complimentary colours of the BG. Well captured.

    Another beautiful Avocet, Arash. Lovely wing spread, colors, eye contact. Ditto a bit more room in front.

    Thanks guys for nice comments, I am not a big fan of images with a lot of empty space around the bird, bird is going to be small and details will not show at 800 pixel so I am sticking to the crop for this one :)


    Thanks again!

    Great in that I can identify little or no noise in the BG clouds.

    Lovely dorsal view and the bG colors really adds to ti. For a pronto, I'd also crop looser. Way to go. When is the Avocet season?

    The high activity is during breeding from Jan to March but they are around all year round, will need more luck to get action when chicks are not around :D

    Thanks!
