Well chosen moment with soft color scheme, I can't find nits!

[Maxis Gamez]

Hi Chas,

Nice to see you around. I do love the interaction and soft light. I love the sharpens on BOTH birds. Excellent capture!

[Simon Bennett]

A fine image - interesting behaviour, great exposure control and use of depth of field with both birds sharp - well done.

[Lori A. Cash]

Very nice capture. Love the interaction.

[Gus Cobos]

Excelent capture Charles. Love the action and the pleasing colors...:D

[Jim Poor]

Really beautiful. The BG looks almost like a studio backdrop it's so perfect.
If forced to pick something to change I'd say the little bit of feather or whatever on the tip of the open bill could be removed.

[Arthur Morris]

Sweet and sharp. I would love to get back there. We had only five minutes in the Falklands...

later and love, artie

It looks like a fine art chalk drawing or a soft painting. As usual you deliver a image worthy of the best of museums. I never tire of your perspective. I have never meet you. But I can always tell your work. Breathtakingly beautiful is all I can think of when I see it. Hats off to you.

[Del Cockroft]

A beautifully clean and sharp image. Excellent interaction!!

[Manos Papadomanolakis]

Great timing and very sweet colors!!!

[Axel Hildebrandt]

[Jodee Novak]

Love the interaction and great lesson in proper exposure of the whites. Thank you, Charles!
