Wood Stork nest at Gatorland in the early morning light. I was finally able to have some good head angles on all the subjects, they are just so darn cute as babies. I didn't have time to do much to this image other than crop and resize, with one round of general shapening. Looks like it could use a bit more on the adult... any other suggestions?

The babies actually look like they are posing for you, good timing on your part. I'm not sure there is anything I would do to improve this photo, exposure and sharpness look good to me.

You made good use of the beautiful light you had. Very nice family portrait.

Mike, I would clone out the big branches on both sides. Even though they might balance each other out but my eyes keep going to both of them. Just a suggestion.

Lovely light, subjects, and poses, Mike. I actually like the two large branches on either side as they afford structure and a natural frame. My only suggestion would be to leave just as much space on the right side (as viewed) as on the left, (cropping in a bit from the right side). This would balance things a bit for me.
Please keep these coming, would love to follow the chicks' progress.
