    From Bunche Beach. I have a few other frames with both feet showing, but I liked the pose of this one so chose pose over feet. C&C always appreciated.

    Another great shorebird image. I'm totally agree with you in selecting off pose.

    Sharp with a perfect EXP and love the very coy head turn. In an ideal world the rocks in the right BKGR would not be there. Looks like a worn first winter. ANd love the raised foot as well.

    Bill,
    Beautiful plover and pose, Sharp and well exposed. I feel that the bird is a little too big in the frame with too much emphasis on the lower 2/3's of the frame. I would move it up a little towards the middle, especially since the bird is looking down.

    Beautiful.
    The head in the shoulder looks so sweet with the raised foot.

    These Snowies are a gorgeous little shorebird!!!

    Nice bird, nice pose. It will look more stunning with a bit of space taken away from the top.

    Wonderful pic. Excellent low angle, love the raised foot, just the right amount of head turn, and great detail.
    Well done.
