The scolding

[Grace Scalzo]

Interesting to observe the constant lessons that parents teach their young ones. This one had the idea of going out on his own which the adult did not think was a good idea.

Great behavior capture. Light seems a bit bright as do some of the whites. Love the comp. and expresion on the juvi.

Whites look OK here.. Nice behavior caught, DOF looks good at F5.6 given the distance that they were or maybe this was the AM ?

[Grace Scalzo]

Evening, I too was surprised at getting them both in focus, given dof at 5.6 and how close they were to me.

Whites look fine to me also. I like the way the top bird "fits" into the space formed by the wings of the lower bird. There are some halos on the black part of both bird's wings. Great comp and the shadows add balance to the image.

The expression on the baby's face is wonderful. He knows he's been caught.

Hi Grace, Great interaction. Given the light and the colors of the birds I think you did well with the exposure. I also wanted to add I like that you included the entire shadows. A fun image to view; thanks for sharing.

Grace, Whites look okay to me too. I love the raised wings of the chick-does look like it's running from mom. Nice details!!

[Axel Hildebrandt]

I like the interaction and sharpness in this one. The blacks could go a bit darker for my taste.

[Joerg Rockenberger]

Great interaction. Love also the composition including the shadows. JR
