Least sandpiper pair

[Kaustubh Deshpande]

40D. 400f5.6L at f/6.3. iso 320. 1/1000s.

Light angle is less than ideal and lower angle was not possible. Ugly habitat but I dont mind it much in this shot :-)

All C&C welcome.

I like the muddy legs, exposure looks good. I only wished for the foot to be out (looks like he is about ready to move it) or maybe some wing action. A bit more dynamics would help this a lot.

Connie, here is another frame. I don't like the HA of the other sandpiper in this one though.

Despite the HA of the BG bird, I think I actually like the second image for the more alert pose. Both images are good though. Nice exposure and sharpness.

Looking forward to more shorebirds!
