Another Plum Island Sanderling

[Bill Dix]

Probably from the same spot on Sandy Beach as Ilija's posting yesterday. Not the ordinary image of a Sanderling. I usually see them scurrying around at the water's edge, but caught this one standing in a pile of seaweed. Cloned out another oof bird in the water beyond. C&C appreciated.

Like the color combination here, makes the bird pop of the screen. Nice shot. Gary.

I like the comp and soft lighting. Well done with the cloning. An appealing image overall. :)

I like the included seaweed, especially the seaweed in front with is fairly well focused.

Nice light on the bird to make it stand out nicely like this from the bg.
