Nice shot John, I would prefer slightly less "highlights" in the water on the left of the bird.

Good detail in the feathers though and I love the way the bird stands out :wink:

Detail is superb as usual John. I don't mind the highlighted water.

Your 2D images are second to none, John, as this one confirms. How about posting an anaglyph to please those brave souls who have
obtained the red/cyan glasses? :cool: :biggrin: :wink:

Up to your usual standards, John. The detail that this camera can capture is very good, wish my shots were as detailed :biggrin:

Stunning John, the detail in the large version is amazing - you can see every single feather!

Been raining all day here, but boy do we need it - it's been very very dry round here.
