Dear Jon, Thank you so much for kind comments. Cannot wait to go to the Kalahari again, looking forward to some lovely sightings and yes...some...

Thank you so much Jon, You are right and I agree, needs more separation between subject and BG, will have another look at this image :5 Kind...

Not really just wanted to share it with you guys that's all.

It is what it is Jon, but if you are not looking for feedback/critique, then you could also think about posting in 'Just for Fun' as I think you want...

Hello Jon, Sweet, such precious wee chap, looks well sheltered and also camouflaged to some extent :tinysmile_shy_t: Thank you so much for...

Really like this one Will. Yes sir! About as nice a flared pose as there is and they are not super easy to get on smaller birds by any means. ...

Hi Ilja, cool look at this species in the native habitat. I've gotten to shoot Caracaras in the US in south Texas and always loved them. The image...

Like this one Daniel. About as nice a pose as there is and we see the colors and tones beautifully. Albeit what looks like harder light you...

Gerald, wow this one is a very nice frame. You made some beautiful improvements versus the last Gerald. A nice little pop of tones and color...

A real dandy here Andreas. For very low or "darker shade" lighting, you brought the tones out beautifully and created a nice lighting effect vs...

Nice shot, i am not sure I get the constant references to slow shutter speed and ISO, surely with 1D Mk II you could have gone to ISO 400 - 800, I...

Well it couldn't be better for me! My favourite animal and beautifully presented:cheers:

Super shot Gabriela despite modest shutter speed well detailed, perhaps a little more difference in exposure between background and subject would...

I prefer this one, the water droplets add and although we ususally like the nut inthe mouth I feel we get a better view of the squirrel here.

Lucky squirrel eating walnuts! Focus bang on image beautifully sharp - a fine shot technically aesethetically perhaps not 100% ,

Your thoughts and words are much appreciated, Steve :5

Hi Gerald, you can only tell at 100%, so will look later. ALL digital files require some for of sharpening period, you just need to be mindful: ...

Thanks Andreas and Steve for the encouragement and the useful comments. I processed the next image in the sequence as it had more behind and below...

Beautiful, great control of the colours and hues, I really lik eit.

He was a great guy, I’ve lost two wonderful guys whilst participating here on BPN over the years and both had the passion and ultimately persuaded...

THX Gabriela .... yes the rather slow shutter is not ideal :bg3: , things we can´t change afterwards . But it is part of my photographic history ......

Had you known then the things you know today... Certainly framing one can fix today to some extent, I think our main issue was the lack of shutter...

Cool, I'll have another look at this recent one when I get time but if it comes back it certainly won't have a frame or a strong signature...

I had a look .... again at the old file , apart from the somewhat quite dense looking blacks . I would rather take the older version with way more...

Thank you Andreas, Miss the Kalahari tremendously... but at the same time I think I know what it's going to be like, going back. More people,...

Thank you so much Andreas, Yes, had a wonderful time in Kruger but at times so frustrating...photographically speaking...I do like clean-ish...
