Please may I take this opportunity to wish everybody on this forum all the very best for Christmas and the new year.
Think that might be a reflection of my pop up hide in the birds eye.

Thanks a lot for your comments and suggestions, very much appreciated.

Keith:

A very Merry Christmas and happy and healthy new year to you and yours.

Its funny, this one makes my neck sore! I keep twisting to level it out. Until I saw the trunk through the snow, I thought maybe you had rotated it from horizontal. :S3:

Nicely exposed,good dof, pleasant bg.

Cheers

Randy

Very nice, Keith. The pose, background, color and sharpness are fine. If it were mine, I might consider increasing saturation and contrast ever so slightly, to bring out a little more definition of the snow. But I like this very much as is.

And Holiday greetings to you!

Beautiful frame with a very wintery holiday feel to it. All looks good except I might try selectively sharpening just the head a bit more. Happy holidays to you and yours too!
