Salut Michel,
C'est une prise vraiment originale et hors de l'ordinaire! Ces oiseaux sont vraiment familiers, un peu trop à mon goût même... Nous campions un été dans le parc du Mont-Tremblant et ils venaient jusqu'à piger dans nos assiettes sur la table de pic-nic... Je n'en ai jamais revu depuis mais ce sont de très belles créatures.

Les couleurs, l'exposition, les détails et la composition sont impressionnantes, félicitations!

Hi Michel
an outstanding shot! All your careful hard work and preperation has really paid off here. I used to have the FZ-20, it is a great camera and you have used it here to it's full capabilites.
Excellent exposure and sharp detail, the slight blur in the wings adds a touch of movement and i really like your POV too.
Thanks for a great note explaining your method of getting this too, well done!

Hi Michel

Yes...confidence is really the key sometimes!
In this case it landeed you with a splendid and unique shot of this lovely gray jay!
You did great to take the chance and hold out your hand in order to lure the bird and shoot with the other. The bird did good to be confident enough to come and get the bait and give you this terrific pose.
Very good camera management and focusing.
Nice work!

Bravo and TFS

Hi Michel,
Cool! :) I like this very much, because it shows man interacting with nature in a very postive way. The bird is captured in excellent fashion, with it's open wings AND man's out-stretched hand in symbolic imagery.

Reminds of Robert Downings words.."A man's reach should exceed his grasp, else what's heaven for".
Very well done,
Howard
