Isaac, I'm sure you chose this image to show us because it's more unusual - thank you. I am on a cruise to Svalbard in June and have booked a walrus trip, so looking forward to that and I note you took this at 400mm. Did you crop it much?
My only observation is the face and whiskers don't stand out clearly because of shadow I think. |

Maria - a lovely portrait and I like how you have darkened the tree, allowing the eye falling directly on its face. Plus good clear detail on the feathers, particularly for the silver area. |

A bird with so much character and well captured Maria - and well developed with good detail over whole bird. A fun image that makes me smile. |

Mary, It's always interesting looking at old images and 2008 was quite early in the digital camera revolution. I had the 30D - 300D was my first and it was a big step to the 30. Your then gear and your technique created a sharp, clear image. Your 2nd can't be argued at re white balance; her coat looks realistic to me given bright sunlight. |

Maria - Really clear, clean sharp image and the pose is so true like to kestrels search for prey the word over. You caught this one in lovely light. |

A stunning image Bruce and so unusual - a very individual portrait that should do you very well should you wish to enter it in any type of competition etc. well done. Masai Mara is a very special place and I'm sure you both had a great experience and came away with many keepers. |

Hi Maria, you too refer to Barbara rather than me - I'm a tad confused why. But thank you for your comments. Being at nearly 500mm equivalent, I used f8 to make sure what I wanted to be sharp was so, but I will try blurring those in front/to rear a tad. |

Many thanks for your comments - although I'm not sure why you see this as being Barbara's images!
Sorry if I confused you in my narrative - the journey by 4x4 was over rough ground, but all images were taken on foot. I very much like what you have done with my image 2. Thank you. |
