Black Oystercatcher

[Glenn Bartley]

Here's one from the other morning. It is certainly a bit tight in thr frame....but I thought is was a fun shot anyways.

All the best!

Glenn,very nice portrait of the oystercatcher. Probably could add some canvas to the top and left side. The only thing that bothers me is the black area in the background between the wings, I'd like to seal it with that area cloned out

I agree with Myer. The black, ghosty area should be easy to get rid of. The only thing else that bothers me is the lack of detail (on my monitor at least) in the bird's right feather.

Great pose. You did well for this fairly harsh light.
