Hi Chris, sometimes its good to capture our subjects from a different perspective, and I like this angle. The colours and detail stand out against the lighter sky BG, and just enough space below for the virtual legs/feet.

Very nice Chris. Great POV. And, the grass in front gives it a very natural look. Well done

[keith mitchell]

HI Chris nice to see some more of your game birds, we have talked about the grasses we get in our shots before, I like the way your bird stands out against that light b/would be well happy if it was mine.

Cheers Keith.

Nice in habitat shot, Chris.

[christopher galeski]

Thankyou everybody,for looking and comments.

Nice shot I like the low angle I would try opening up the darkest areas just a little just to see what the effect would be.
