that's very nice Tony, well composed and nice lighting. The feet don't bother me.

Sanderling certainly seem to be the "in" bird on here at the moment - another nice one Tony.

Hi Tony a very nice capture, but I felt the whole picture was very light. I took your picture into PS and played around with it. If you want me to Post it into your thread just say so. :toast:

Nice comp and lighting. The feet are fine for me, especially as there is a little of both visible anyway. I've not had a chance to have a go at these since last March.
