The weather forcast looked good for the south east so headed for the mud and shingle banks of the north Kent coast, although high tide was a little later than I would have prefered I decided it would be worth it. Found a small flock of co-operative Turnstones and it was worth getting very wet and dirty lay in the mud.
All the best

Hi Phil,
Certainly worth getting wet and dirty for. Beautifully done and I love the low angle!
Regards Chris.

Hi Phil
Low angle is definately worth the effort you made. I would prefer it if the bird had a little more room on the right.

The pose is superb showing a good sense of movement. The angle really brings it up a notch too.
Well done
