Maybe a bit light?? Responses appreciatede to check monitor.

John I have to say your pictures have the best props, you always seem to catch your birds in the best perches ever. Love your work. Love this shot.

Great pose and perch. Looks nice and sharp, with a lovely colored background. I do think just the slightest darkening, or a few points of added black, might help.

Thanks - Will do.
heres a try.

Works for me. Feels just a little richer.

Repost looks better. Nice work John.

I bet you haven't dug with that spade in the last few years:)
Are the tyres Dunlop or Pirelli.....Dunlop's best:tinysmile_shy_t:

Thanks
Adrian- it finally split in half last year. I did use it up till then.

Great prop!

Great shot John. I think the repost is better, too. At what time of the day did you capture it? Here they are mainly on rooftops. I've never seen one on the ground and they appear late in the evening and early morning.

Hi Kalin
Thanks
When they have young in the nest they can be around all day and any time .
Early evening at moth time is good too.
