No squirrel, just a heron !!
Browsing through my older files I came across this one. Taken from a boat in Norway sailing on our way back to the harbour. Hand held with Nikon D3s and Nikon 70-200/2.8

No processing just resized to 720px. Yes, it was that beautiful over there:biggrin:

Quite minimalist but works nicely though.

Well, I'd never have guessed that having the bird so small in the frame would have worked so well :smile:
Well done.

I'm struggling with this one Edwin! The graphics are strong, as is the colour, but it feels a little unbalanced to me. Maybe if the bird was on the right side, or if there were more birds, it would be easier on my eye.

Bingo Ian... :wavey: Just wanted to hear that. I have the same feeling but wasn't completely sure.

Would make a lovely landscape Edwin without the bird. :smile: :wink:
