    good memory!!! not this one, though!! i did a pano crop on the old one. this one i did a traditional crop with minimal pp. just wanted to get some thoughts on the compo. i know everyone wants me to lose the leaf:p but it stays for now!!!

    it is a totally different pic. dont know if it was in the same series on the same day, but i think it is a from a lower perspective than the old one.

    thanks for commenting!!

    went back and found the old one. this one is processed totally differently and i think has a much better mood to it. definitely the same series. could have even been back to back.

    Mr. Daktari,
    I like the composition, the chick is placed well in frame. The oof chick to the right needs to go; it disrupts the balance and natural flow of the image. This is one big belly shot...:D you must have been almost below ground level for this capture angle...:eek::):p;)...Well, it paid off...I like it...good show...:cool:

    P.S. Try cropping about 1/4 from the bottom, it displays better...:cool:

    Hey H: Agree with the painter of light on this one. A little crop from the bottom will enhance the image.
    Cute little thing.
    Regards,
