From Fort Desoto a few weeks ago, this one decided to get very close, so I ran off a few frames.

A nice, detailed portrait. I think the sharpening is a bit on the conservative side. There is a definite red color cast, but that may be due to the light.

It was nice of this subject to move so close. I like this portrait Bill, the penetrating eye and vivid color of the bill really stand out. I think cropping this to square from the right would create an even stronger impact. Nice work.

Nice portrait, Bill. I like the color combination of the beak and eye.

I really like this comp Bill, and the detail you got in the whites, and great eye! I just think i would cut down on the saturation a bit.

Excellent breeding colors Bill, the eyes always seem bluer on White Ibis when their bills get redder. Love the background.
