Great Egret

Michael Wolf was kind enough to let me use his 7D at Gatorland unfortunately for me he did come up with a good enough argument to use on my wife as to why I need to buy a new camera a week after getting a new computer:)
I guees it could have been worse he also had his 1D MkIV with him. (still waiting for calibration hardware for the new computer so I hope the colors are fine)

Colors look good to me. You also have pretty good detail in the whites. Nice complimentary BG too.

colors look just fine, like the details and BG, if you used unsharp mask on this I will use slightly smaller value forradius. Comp is balanced and nice, TFS.

Nice shot Don, good to see you there this past weekend.

Don,

Looks good to me!
Excellent detail and a creamy smooth background make this image pop.

So. Did you order one yet?

You can try out the 1D4 next time!

Looking good Don, I take it that was shot during the early overcast part of the day as it has just a slight gray cast to my eyes. Had a great time with you and the gang!

I think I can afford the camera I am not so sure about the divorce.
