Hi Jill !!!!! Proud of you on this one !!!! Made a razor sharp image with three good poses and head angles I like the angle from which you were shooting Did get you a bit off sun angle but did not hurt and did get you a great profile

If anything would like seeing some detail in the dark backside of the parent and slightly lighter tree !!! You get a big Congrats on this one !!!!! :cool:

My only NIT is that they are not in my back yard:):)

Great exposure and spot on focus

Hi Gary Mr & Mrs Twitley are flexible and can set up in your yard It all has to do with how much will you offer :D:)

....btw we are trying to get away from the infamous "nit" word !!!! Look it up in a dictionary and might get an idea !!!!
