Hi Tabatha,

Lovely shot of the duck - like the pose and focus, and the setting.

Possibly a little overexposed on the down and on the top of the head, but still well worth posting.

Thanks,

Ed

Like those eyes! Great close-up, and good focus...

Shame there was a slight burn-out in the neck with the light, but great nonetheless...

Thanks,

Ed

Like the look on its face - obviously enjoying the sun.

Good depth of field and reasonable focus, however, I would have tried to get the full body in the shot, or cropped it to fill the frame, and make more of that relaxed facial expression...

Cheers though,

thanks, Ed

Great pose... and the colours are great too.

I would have tried to remove or lessen the branches at the front though, also flash in eyes seems very full.

However, having said that it is still a really nice shot.

Thanks

Ed

Lovely shot, and good focus. Also like the way it shows an owl very much in the wild.

It only a shame that it didn't have it's right eye open more clearly. However, this does help in making it look more sleepy I guess.

Thanks - Obrigado(?)

Ed

Great shot - must have had the adrenaline going on this one!

I agree that by cropping the shot you could centralise the cobra and bring it more fully into the picture.

It's also a shame it wasn't facing you - but on the other hand if it's not facing you it's not spitting your way either!

Thanks

Ed

Ken,

Stunning photo - the detail, pose and depth are field are all spot on.

Thanks

Ed

Great shot,

Busy, action, sharpness spot on and it's interesting. THe depth of field is right to give the impression of a large number of birds. Has a menacing effect to it bringing out the group character of the vultures.

Thanks

Ed

Beautiful light and focus. Pose good too... What tops it off is the depth of field offering that perfect blurred background...

Thanks,

Ed

Pam,

This shot is absolutely spot-on. Almost worth the trouble with the lens...

Perfect focus, depth of field, and it captures the moment spot-on.

Well Done!

Ed
