    Beautiful composition, Bill. I like the stretched wing pose. The effect of Pixel Bender on the plover is fantastic. I would have preferred to see the plover separated from the bg around the nape and undertail area with a slightly darker shade, IMHO.

    Bill, Nice wing stretch and filtering. The area in front of the neck seems a bit heavy. I might define the white rear underside a little. The image is wonderful and I like the foot stretching out a lot!

    Hi Bill, I like these wing stretch poses and this one is very cool with the PB effect applied. I agree with comments regarding the bg and standing out a bit more but I do like this as is. Some obfuscation is kinda cool to me... I always appreciate a good eye contact too.
