C&C welcome

Hi Keith, Nice shot but personally I would crop a bit of the right and the left. From the left becuase I think that stone takes to much attention and from the right becuase you crop some from the left and the the bird is in the middle in stead of a little right top the middle. Hope it is clear what I mean.

My favourite wader. Love the pose The colours and tones really compliment each other too.

Lovely image, the rain works really well here! Perch and background are perfect as well.

Very nice,love the composition, and very well exposed,lovely

Works for me Keith

Hi Kieth
Great shot but seems out of context for an Oyk.
Was this coming back to a nest or just walking along a wall or something ? Seems as though she knows where she's going, IE not just walking about.
Everything right though, focus, exposure, etc.
Cheers
John

Thanks for looking and your comments
John i don't understand Oyk or where the birds going?
Cheers Keith.

A fine shot exposure and detail spot on. We get these nesting on the tops of walls here in the Dales even had one on a tree stump.

Kieth
" Oyk" is what we used to call them in the old days.
The bird just looks strange on those sort of rocks as opposed to thier normal habitat is what i meant.
Cheers
