Cactus Finch
From the later part of last year I have tried to get more of a 'habitat' shot rather than the 'portrait' style (if I have one?) not sure if this counts.

I am going to omitt the data as it was rather embarrassing, I had let it on a rather silly setting oops :redface:

Silly setting or not, you've got a great result.

Interesting, looks like a fledgling. Wrong settings or not, this is still a very nice portrait, shown well in its habitat.

I wish I could use silly setting & come up with such a good image. It looks sharp, it shows great detail with good DOF & well exposed. Well taken Stephen. (Would like to see techs)

Nice picture although your silly settings.
Looks good to me.
Making pictures is being creative and that's what you've done. Nothing silly(or...??) :smile:
