    Default Hurry Up With That Stick Will YA

    Went to a new rokery for me to see if there were any good angles as they are hard to find around here that are clean and close

    John:

    I like he title :)

    I think the exposure is pretty good, maybe just a tiny bit hot on whites on head. Pretty sharp too, considering the length you were working at!

    I was bothered by the mass of the nest, and tried a couple mental crops, but couldn't improve on the overall composition.

    There is some fairly noticeable vignetting in the corners. I am bit surprised to see it with this combination. The sky color is also a bit tealish (you know, that teal like color!) for my tastes.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Title sure fits, not sure about this angle though, the vignetting does seem problematic and dust spot top, right of middle. Would have been nice to see more of the legs.

    John:

    Vignetting looks much better , and the color is better too. I don't think it was strictly the effect of the vignetting correction.

    Thanks

    Nice pose and well controlled. Though the whites appear a bit hot to me too.
