Whilst out in the limited sunshine of yesterday, looking for "Mans Impact" I found this nice chap preening.
Just could not get that white!

CS2, neat image

Excellent, I do believe a very saleable image...

This is a very good image on all levels Paul - like it loads

Yes the whites are a pain in the a*se on coots - I've clocked them with a spot meter at more than +7ev between comb and body shadow, DSLR or film, you've got no chance if there's any sunlight about.

I like the wind-ruffled feathers - the finishing touch - viable commercial image if ever I saw one

OK thanks gents so can you recommend a good agency for getting of the ground?

Hi Paul it is a nice commercial image.
Do not bother with RSPB images, I have send them a submition 5 months ago and still have not heard anything!
