one from last year, just playing with old raws on my lappy while my takeout arrives ...

my mac is almost up running so this is still produced on an uncallobrated screen. I plan to reprocess much of my stuff when its up and running...

but in the mean time ... i love these birds... big in frame and no apolology offered!

600mm f8 iso400 1/250th

No apologies required Phil,excellent detail and its size is not a problem for me ,wish i had one half as good.

Cheers Keith.

This has an almost painted look to it with the subtle lighting and colours and the detail is stunning. Glad to see the missus has allowed you a break from the decorating!

Very nice indeed. Perhaps give the eye a little lightening and extra contrast to accentuate the catchlight?

Hi Phil
Missed this earlier.
Lovely detail on the back. Maybe just a highlight boost would help-only a bit mind and an eye light would be good.
There's a black bit below the wing on the left leg which looks a bit odd.
Cheers
