Nice detail in the Sanderling and its breakfast, Peter. I like the foam in the bg, though I wish it didn't bisect the bird.

Peter,
Wonderful specimen shot. Like the crab in it's mouth. Perhaps it is my monitor, but the whites seem a little hot. The wave overwhelms the bird and there could be more feather detail. Dodge the face a little to mitigate the shadow? Good catch. :toast:

I really like the running pose you caught and the crab. Sharon
