I know the way it feels

Nice image, not sure if I would have got the windy bit without the title, would have though scruffy redshank. Like the reflection but again this does not suggest wind. I may be talking rubbish as usual. Maybe a lower angle with the waves on the open water behind rather than the reflection would have told the story better. I know this is not always, or often possble.

Agian nice image

Hi Dave,

God knows what the wind must have been like on the coast, it's been bad enough inland :eek: . Would like a bit trimmed of the left to de-centralise, but other than that , nice shot.

Any Shore Larks about :confused:

Regards

Yes there were three located at Cley. I had one in my sights for a great shot but just as I was about to press the button woosh off they went for no apparent reason. I must learn to press quicker.

Regards
