A pity it wasn't turning a stone. :smile: :wink: A beautifully detailed image nonethless.

Razor sharp and I like the lighting. Nice one Phil :wavey:

Nice that the bird still retains some elements of summer plumage. Sharp bird, but still enough detail in the background. Lovely shot.

Like this very much, good colour and detail - and a lovely setting too.

As Kim says, a lovely setting, very nice Phil.

Lovely shot Phil, I just find the black object above the head a little distracting.

Cheers,

Lewis.

Exquisite shot! The second one is probably even better in my opinion.
Posted by Sandra Hendrikse on August 4, 2009 at 2:30 AM
Both very nice shots. Well composed and full of detail.

lots of detail, pin sharp and great environment - cracking shots (IMHO I prefer the first - but both excellent)

cheers
