This is a great laugh -- he's trying so hard! Not what we think of for such a noble bird!! Hope he succeeded!
You might consider backing off the contrast just a little. Would love to see more!

Thanks for the tip, and he managed to get a small amount of grass. He worked on it for a good 5-10 minutes, and tried several different ways.

Great photo! I need my subjects to stay still or else I can't get a sharp shot. Nice to see detail in both the bright snow and in the dark feathers.

Great shot Doug! I agree with Diane on backing down just a little on the contrast. Great details with a tough background!

always nice to see unique positions, contrast is a little harsh but good sharpness and DOF. good story told!
