Hi Ken,

You have a nice crowned crane portrait. The details in the large version are awesome. .........................Jim

Very nice portrait. Like the details and the nice tight shot of the head. Nicely done.

I managed to see a pair of these in Ngorongoro Crater a few years ago, but my image was nothing to brag about. Great colors and the techs look good.
