Hi all

Here are two shots of Dunlins. They are arriving here in Iceland and these are the first ones I see this year. Please feel free to comment (C&C). :-)

Sindri, these are wonderful! Great background in the second, but I prefer the watery surroundings in the first. Colors and exposure are perfect (both shots)! I would only clone out the bright sparkle in front of the bill in the first shot...

Great shots Sindri. These snorkle nosed shorebirds are all so beautiful and you do them justice. I just wish we had some here.

You may get more from a camera than about anyone I've seen.

Very Well Done Sindri

Perfect shots.
1st is the best but they are both spot on perfect.
I have never seen better results from a bigma than you get Sindri.

Beautiful, beautiful images Sindri. I am really loving these shorebirds. Plain in one way yet elegant in another. Excellent!
