    Frank"

    Sharp, nice angle in frame, well exposed, good shooting angle too.

    I might consider cropping up from the bottom to just above your signature.

    I might also try teasing out a bit more of the subtle catchlight, not much.

    Cheers

    They look great in breeding plumage. Beauty shot, Frank. Love the low angle. I wish for a glint in the eye.

    I agree with the small crop from the bottom. I like the well exposed, sharp bird and its' position, the bg is real good.

    Nice exposure and detail. Also wish for more of a catchlight.

    Hi Frank, good low angle, and just love the colours you have captured on the turnstone. I like the two tone BG, and agree with Randy to come up from the bottom a touch.

    Frank, excellent low angle and details. I love that BG at the top. I am wondering if more inclusion of that and then some crop from bottom...that might be better.
