    Almost non existant in South Australia, but yes common in Victoria. Nice sharp shot with great dof, like the brown backdrop and diagonal perch

    Greg:

    Sharp, well posed, soft bg. I might be tempted to try a version with a sliver off top and left side to see if you like the comp.

    Cheers

    I love how he's being coy and just showing us a little of his beautiful breast color. The perch and BG color are a perfect match -- love it!

    Hi Greg, lovely light, which in turn has brought out the colours nicely. Sharp, and I do like this pose against a killer BG.

    Im fine with the comp as is, but Randy's suggestion makes interesting reading.

    In the last series the Lions played Australia, they won the 1st test, then lost the next two. Is history going to repeat itself. Your team is down with a few injuries, but good luck, I will be watching.

    Beautiful light, color, and what I've come to think of as an Australian BG. I like the comp as is, but Randy's suggestion would get rid of the complexity of the perch in the ULC which might help.
