From this afternoon at Green Cay Nothing special but I like it The bird was walking at me and covered by some vegetation at time obscured. Waited for the frontal area to be mostly cleared and open the lens wide open. Trying for this sort of effect but not sure it was working. What do you think?
Comments welcome and much appreciated

It's a cool shot - the BG colors are nice -I like the pose but you might need bail$$ on this forum- these guys are tough here,they call you out on everything,especially that guy Alfred- LOL
Hi Lance at this distance the dof is measured in milimeters you might wish for it but its impossible to have !!!
not sure about the head angle Denise but are arranging for bail money if needed :) I have one with head totally centered and did not look good with the merge on the neck.
My favorite for these guys is one with the bird directly above me like you get on a fishing pier and the bird looking down. Eyes look some kind of spooky !!!
My kind of image..I LOVE, LOVE the dof and that really does it for me. The BG is super with the focus right on the eyes. One of my favs of yours Alfred, it rocks!
Sometimes it is all about the 'feel', elegant, moody, bit edgy..Ohoo I so like this

Excellent feel and mood Maestro...are you getting artistic on me now???:eek: Waite to Miss Fabs sees this...:D I like the close up dreamy pose...welldone as always...good show...:cool:
Hi Al,
Like the shot, and I like Lances' idea about having the tip in focus. Nice softness to it and beautiful BG. Would you add more canvas at the bottom, looks a little tight to me :)
