    Another great one, Mike! You have a patent on plovers with nice clean backgrounds. I like it.

    Beautiful exposure. Whites show nice detail. Love the POV and the wonderful BG. Pose is ideal, slightest catchlight captures the goods for me! Colors are lovely, very sweet.

    Very nice image with an excellent exposure and lots of detail. This one seems to be molting into basic plumage.
    On my screen the colors look a little too warm. I would try adjusting the white balance to eliminate the red cast.

    Thanks to all for taking the time to comment!

    This image was captured 50 minutes after sunrise and the original post used the "As Shot" color settings that resulted from using AWB in camera.
    But I have to agree with Luis and Arash that this made the image a bit too warm.
    Here is a repost with the Blue/Yellow slider in ACR changed from 6500 to 6000.

    I love the colours of the BG, very appealing. I also like the bit of leg reflection at bottom right. If anything I'd clone out the bit of blue just below your signature for a stronger bottom edge. Very well done!!
