    Hi folks!How are you? Hope everything is good for you. Today I would love to share a picture that was possible because of the hospitality of Mr Arthur Morris who received me in his home for a few days during my visit to FL, I have to say that I am terribly thankfull to him for such gester and for allowing me to share not only time in the field with him but also to share with me some nice shooting spots, this particular shot, was taken with late afternoon light, I had the chance to shoot this birds during my stay in Arthur's place and I had a blast doing it... to say that I was 2 hours late for dinner just for being photographing this wonderfull subjects should be enough proof :)

    Thnaks Arthur, as I said, I owe you big time!! Hope yo all like it! Enjoy!

    I like your composition a lot. The bird in front is sharp, and the light is beautiful. Pretty, clean bg compliments the birds, and technicals are right on. Very well done.

    Beautiful colours & well exposed frame.
    Tack sharp. i must say. U've got some lovely details there...
    Might like some room on top & may be some CCW rotation (!!). But that's purely a personal taste...

    A wonderful juxtaposition very nicely done. I would like to have seen a bit more room above and in front. By you staying out late at least I got my fair share of chicken!

    Lovely colors here Ramon and a perfect exposure. I do wish for more room on top and I think this would have been stronger if the OOF bird were more to the right so that the bill of the front does not overlap the second crane.
