Good stuff ! And on a rock !
Just a tiny bit big in frame for me, but no big deal.
Nice picture.

Wonderful shot Justin. It looks good here, but the larger one really shows off the level of detail that you have captured. Onr of those birds that you can't realy appreciate except in a photograph. They are usually just brown things flitting about on the tideline.

Won't see a finer shot of these chaps Justin,

Very complimentry colours throughout, and pin sharp.

The framing suits my taste, and i wish i had something half as good :toast: :toast:

Hi Justin

Maybe just a tad tight in the frame but everything else is spot on - great soft light, perch, pose and BG!

that's a lovely shot Justin. The large version is crammed full of detail and a nice composition and background too.

Stunning shot, so simple but so elegant, the colours tone so well throughout the image and the lichen sets it all off :smile:

Wonderful portrait, Justin. Great feather detail, particularly on the bigger version. That lens certainly seems to be agreeing with you!
Posted by Danny Green on November 6, 2008 at 6:01 PM
Great shot Justin I see you are putting that big lens to good use.
