A Window into the Past

[Marina Scarr]

Although the chick is not in focus, I really like this picture b/c it helps to depict just how different yet similar the chicks and adults actually are.

Nice portrait shot, good DOF even the chick looks sharp. Nice image, Marina.

I like what you're seeing here, Marina. It's a story worth telling, even if the conditions weren't optimal (the chick partly hidden, partly out of focus).

interesting concept marina i like it

[Randy Stout]

Marina:

I think the image is very effective. It tells the story well. The poses are close enough to work well together, I like the rich brown on the adults head, and the matching whites on both.

Cheers

I like the idea here Marina and the light on the browns of the adult. I would have loved a bit more dof on the adult and think the chick has just enough to get away with it. Real sweet to have included the baby for comparison.

Nicely composed image, adult is very sharp...well done

[ramesh anantharaman]

An apt caption this is. a well composed image and the techs are spot on to get both the birds in focus.

[Melissa Groo]

Beautiful--and educational--image, Marina. I really like this juxtaposition and the eye contact.

[Sid Garige]

Brilliant idea and perfect execution. Very well done Marina.

[Dumay de Boulle]

Very nice...IQ looks great and the colors as well as exp look spot on...The one in the BG is also pretty sharp...NICE CREATIVE IMAGE!

[Andrew McLachlan]

A little late Marina, but i quite like this image. Very nicely composed!

[Arthur Morris]

I love that the chick's head is parallel to the adult's. EXP spot on.
