Great low-level perspective Phillip: was your car half buried in sand at the time?!

Nice lighting for details in the white underside, yet maintains a strong catchlight.

Hi Phillip

Really nice image, love the low angle don't know how you got so low in a car - minor nit a little too central!

Very nice image Philip, slightly more off centre would have been great!

Thats one very smart looking Kentish Plover.
Really like the low view point.
Central or not it looks good to me..

I do agree with it being a little central, but a fine catch all the same.

apart from the central thingy which I agree with, this is an attractive image considering what looks like good old fashioned english weather to me!

Cheers

Nice image, puts it into context in terms of habitat. Too central? I don't think it's too bad as it occupies so much of the frame.
