Sandy this is really nice. I really like the color of the BG here. Your DOF is great, with absolute focus on the plover. It has been good to hear that some of these are making a come back and are nesting again on a few beaches here in Southern California this year.

Interesting pose in what appears to be soft light. Nice selective focus.

Lovely pose and a very nice low angle, Sandy. I like the in focus shell fragment on the left-it offers a nice counterbalance.

I like the simplicity of this image. The colors of the snowy plover are similar to the sand. The focus and the detail work well together here. Nice pose. Minimalist background.

Really nice simple image Sandy. I like your dof and the color palette, the soft light and the low pov. I do notice some noise in the bg, more noticeable in the dark area. Should be a quick fix if you feel like it. Great shot!
