We are going to drive you crazy, Subash.. :-)
What Larry just said about trimming just a bit on the left will balance
the photo a bit better for those of us who don't like centering .. my
main objection was the blurry black blobwhich drew my eye right to it.

No Subash! Centering disturbs the

Trust!
I like the "more bird less water" of the tighter crop. I also
empathize with Jack's comment about centering. I think that you could
crop a bit more off of the left (between the two big broken shells?)
and if you want to preserve the aspect ratio a bit off the top.
The yellow clam is merely good, while the bird is great. If I were to
follow my rule of get rid of everything that is merely good, leaving
only the great stuff, I'd crop to the left where I mentioned above,
crop the bottom just below the feet, and leave stuff on the right to
maintain aspect ratio and give some space in front of the bird.

Suibash - I' not crazy about square crops but I kinda agree with
Larry on this one.. though probably would not crop as much as he is
indicating... and only then because ofthe little black bloch that is
outoof in the water.. hmm maybe photshopnoise reduction to blur the
water entirely would work too..
That little guy is one I've encountered in NOrth America - guess he
really gets around :-)
Larry, Ann: i've cropped the picture differently. hope it looks better
now...

Great shot, but could be cropped square from the left side. Nothing
to the right of the yellow clam adds anything to the photo.
you are right Larry. i also forgot to add PESO to the subject. my
senior moment...
