Sony a77ii, Tamron 150-600, 600mm at f6.3, 1/1600sec, ISO 640

This was a cold and totally overcast day. I was walking a waterfront about to shoot some pelicans and gulls on a dock when this little guy flitted down and posed for a second or so on a piling near me. Got a bunch of terrible poses but this one seemed decent enough.

In LR I cropped pic, increased exposure a bit, and fiddled with other settings to try and make the picture a bit brighter. Also ran pic through DFine to eliminate some noise (this camera gets a bit noisy even at lower ISO settings it seems)

Appreciate your C&C on the pic. Is the piling attractive or not? In some ways I would have liked to have taken some closer photos of the piling just by itself.
