    Default Morning siesta!

    I took this over the weekend early in the morning... these stilts and dowitchers were clustered together in different state of resting posture. For processing, cropped to pano, cleaned some objects in the water and applied fract on a separate layer and changed opacity. Hope you like it...

    Indranil, I like the pattern of the group very much. Does it need a very slight rotation? I usually like more room on top than the bottom or equal parts for a reflection image but it's just a matter of taste. Nice job.

    Indranil, a lovely group of birds. the filtering is very nice and subtle too. I like the pano crop.

    Pano crop works for the subject very well Indranil! The different poses are cool too!

    Hi Indranil, what a cute collection of shore birds. I love how they are hanging out, totally oblivious to each other. I think I would rather see the birds moved down in the frame also, but that's just a subjective thing, I like it as presented too!

    I like the ORIG COMP best with the line of birds at the top and the nice ripples below. There is an avocet in the group. Biggest problem is that several of the birds needed posing lessons
