Common Sandpiper

[Joshi Bhavya]

Hi..everyone, Common sandpiper shot at local lake
I was very close of this sandpiper, I have to go closer due to small lens.
with canon 550D, Tamron 70-300mm@ 300mm
F;5.6
ISO:400, 1/3200s
Blur BG. 10% Crop.

Suggestion and advice welcome..

Nice eye contact. Its good you could get close. Some more space at the bottom to include its feet in full would be good. Also a slight more brightness would be better. The clean background is nice, but I would prefer to keep the background as it is to give a feel of its habitat. Thanks for sharing.

Is it only 10% crop? :001_unsure: Or Is this 10% of the original image? I agree with Mrudul's comments.

Nice eye contact. Image seems to be processed in layers.While doing so,refining the edges of the subject is important,to make the subject look naturally connected to the background.Even with the longer lenses,one needs to be close to the subject to get better details.Thanks for sharing.

I agree I did to much blur.. From Original Image I crop 10%:001_unsure: .... the Original BG is little bit Grassy...
