Very nice Keith. Great BG and I love the pose from the sharp snipe :wink: A little of the bottom would help the picture IMO.

Excellent work, Keith. Love the eye contact and the BG is a beaut. Agree with Bob re a touch off the bottom.

Top notch work Keith. I'd leave it as is, the BG, pose and rock perch are superb. :toast: :toast: :toast:

Comp fine, but seems a bit washed out on my monitor and could do with "beefing " up a bit.
Not exactly D7000 sharp , but could be my gear or a big crop.

I don't like the near-square crop, either needs a bit off the bottom or a bit more on the right. That aside, this is a superb shot.

Lovely shot, not so keen on the crop either, but the pose, perch and background are spot on, he looks very relaxed. I can't seem to get anywhere near these guys on the reserve.
