Hello I shot this purple sandpiper at Barnegate Lighthouse NJ yesterday. I did my best in Lightroom to make the image pop a bit more but struggle with cropping. Hoping to see some crop options!!

Thanks for your input!

I like it, would need to remove the blurry portion. I do think having the bird to the right side of the image makes sense. I originally cropped with bird on the left with more rock etc. I know it always best to have room on the side the subject is facing... the hard part is too many options with cropping!

thanks

Nice image.
I agree about the blurry browns.
Putting that aside for a moment, here are two other crops, one with a horizontal format and one square.
The nice diagonal of the land is a strong element in all. Having the bird look into more open space is the traditional positioning within a frame.

Thanks Scott two nice choices! I think I like the square better although I really like both views!
Thanks for helping!!

Just another idea. I think the colors and contrast look really good. http://52662617-958038754445319588.preview.editmysite.com/uploads/5/2/6/6/52662617/5933735_orig.jpg
