Dave where is the photo?? regards

[Dave Barnes]

Thanks Loukie, I was still loading the URL. Now sorted.

[Arthur Morris]

Well done. Sharp. The EXP is right on. Love the rear bird. Wish for a better angle into the left-hand bird with a better head angle.

[DanWalters]

Really like the interaction and the details in the whites.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Wicked interaction! I can only imagine how much even better this would be with a better head angle of the front bird, but I understand in situations like this it doesn't always happen. I would crop the left down to the same proportion as the right - with the two subjects facing each other you don't need more open space on one side. I love the water trailing from the rising feet!!

[Kobus Tollig]

Ditto Arthur but still great shot well done Dave

[Mark Dumbleton]

Awesome interaction and exposure so well handled! Ditto head angle, but we cant always get what we want. Well done!
