Good timing Dale but I would wish to have a bit more
detail in the BG. It looks a bit like a night shot.

I saw this earlier at work and thought it looked pretty good! Reminds me of some of Dannys from earlier in the year. :toast:

Very nice Dale. A great idea well executed.

What were your exposure settings out of interest ?

Cheers

I'm not sure if it's me but it looks a touch soft here. Perhaps a litle extra usm. Other than that it has a very nice feel to it.

Hi Austin it is a little soft it was a grab shot on 200 iso, f/5.6 shutter 160.

Like this lots Dale. Not sure if it's the pp or web compression, there seemed to be two horizontal dark bands across the entire frame in the shadow area behind the bird.
