Always nice to try something different. Now is the best time to search for the Godwits in evening and early morning light as they like to sit on a high post to overlook their chicks on the ground.

Very well crafted. The golden water makes the image for me.

From the atmosphere side of things I like it, but I'd like to have seen a shot from a few minutes earlier, bit more low key.

Compositionally I think it's great Ed - different indeedy

Very nice and would also work very well as a portrait crop around the gate.

Cheers,
