    Troy, this one tells a story and captures the imagination, would also work as pano (a little more off the top).-I too like it a lot.

    Great image Troy and nice to see something different that works. Your composition is great. I think other crops such as vertical could also work for this image.

    Hi Troy this is so awesome I want to bookmark it and look at it every day. I would not have thought to do this and I agree it also gives me ideas for other pictures too. So awesome!

    (I did photograph a rufous screech in my grandparents yard last week in FL at night with a flash but its not good enough to post here. It was a lot of fun)

    Thank you all.
    I first tried the vertical crop but I found it to be a bit unbalance as the adult is overpowering the little colt. I decided to go with this crop.
    Ashleigh, love to see those shots. Post them on here. :)
