The bird is nicely angled, and you got down low which really shows off the bird. EXP looks nice you have pretty clean sand which accentuates your bird and its lovely details.

Geir:

Excellent on the bird, as Marina mentioned. Soft light really helped.

Did you need to do some work on the sand to the right of the bird?

Cheers

[Geir Jensen]

Yes i do. I am not good with thees matters.

Geir:

If you would like, post the original uncropped or processed file, and perhaps some of the folks will take a stab at removing the problem area.

Cheers

I agree on the area to the right, but the bird is great, the sand on the beak is a nice touch and the post is really good.

[Jim Fenton]

Lovely light and pose.

Agree it looks like you cleaned something up on the right. I would be tempted to clone out the bright white thing just below the forward most foot.

Lastly...I think a little selective sharpening on the eye would really be nice.
