I think this works really well especially with that raised foot and anticipated movement.
Great impact from the very low angle and a pleasing proportion of space in front of,and behind the moorhen.

Hello

I like the comp' and bird.

I'm wondering if it could do with a small adjustment in 'curves' to give a little more contrast?

Hi Alan - I like it a lot

Agree with ARD - just a tad of mid-tone contrast extra and it's there

I love to see a different perspective on 'common' subjects. You have achieved this very well.
Well done.

I agree with the above and especially the unusual aspect. Well done

Agree with all the above. The low angle gives it a kind of sinister look
