A Least Sandpiper near Seward, Alaska.
This was from earlier this week – I liked how the sandpiper appeared to be checking out its reflection.
I wanted to thank everyone for all the constructive comments and emails I recived on the sandpiper blur image – lots of great insight, I really appreciate it!

Nice capture Ron, I like the reflection.
Dang Ron
Another great image Ron, love the reflection and blur – great pose and lighting. Nicely done. Did the bottom of your lens get wet? Looks like you were close to the surface!
I feel so inadequate!
Great crispy image and reflex… The mix of tones is very calm and natural… Congratulations!
This is really sweet Ron. I suppose going lower would mean an over/underwater shot. But there is an idea for you. I have never seen one of those done with shorebirds.
Thanks a lot everyone!
Hey Dave – bottom of my lens didn’t get wet, but I sure was! I don’t think I could get any lower without it getting wet. Thanks man.
Hi Mark – that would be cool – bird above water, little feet below.
