    Love the wind-blown feathers, the sharpness, the perfect EXP., and the COMP. Excellent on all counts!

    I see that the EXP is more like that for the 50D than the MIII (where most bright whites are great in full sun at 1/1600 at f/8 ISO 400).

    You got really close. Where?

    Exposure control, details and BG look great. I would put the bird further to the right in the frame.

    Terrific detail and exposure, although I might have pushed it to the right just a little more. I agree about moving the bird to the right of the frame. How are you liking the new body?

    Hi Layton,
    I like it as presented.....as mentioned above....you nailed the white!!!......the eye is on one ROT position......and the wind blown feathers of the breast are in another......very nicely composed!
