97 Dec 25 Reply I don't know, if you treated the picture in a way, "Nature" will recommend. If it is so, try to apply this one for GDT yearly challenge! But read their rules first; they are a little bit stronger than Nature! Dec 8th
97 Dec 25 Comment Thanks to all of you. "The rest" of sharpness - a good criteria. Take the 5000 ISO as a set (if more, picture will loose quality using Topaz). To have the background smooth, Ap 5.6 will do. Dued to an excellent lens with a lot of glass you get a very good result. The speed of 1/1600 is limit in this situation. Normally try to photograph with 1/2000 - if possible. In this situation a shorter speed will mean to open the aperture. The object is about 15 meters (10 yards?) away. Can you imagine the picture with a speed of 1/2000 and an aperture of 3.5? Guess, the depth would not be sufficiant to catch the bird sharp. It is a dance on a blade ...

Your comments are right - what would you suggest in this situation?		 Dec 8th

97 Dec 25 Comment Butch, I'm with you! This bird is pretty! Everything in nature does have a reason why it looks in this way. And nature is beauty!

You caught the bird sharp and in a good light, the back ground is perfect. Let me guess: you changed it? That would not be a flaw!

Fine work, Butch!		 Dec 6th
97 Dec 25 Comment Pretty flamingo - could be the cover of the song!

Well placed the sharp eye and the big beak! First, I had to get used to the red color. But the longer I looked at the picture it is getting normal. That's how a Chilean flamingo is dressed!		 Dec 6th
97 Dec 25 Comment Welcome Deborah! I like the penguins and the action while jumping out off the water. Is this the original photo or can you crop this a little bit? I'm asking, because I'm a fan of action. Is it possible, to show only the 3 left ones in a frame? It is a perfect light, sharp shot - and you have been in move? Top! Dec 6th
97 Dec 25 Comment Stunning. If I would be a judge, this one will be rated for Gold! Darkness behind, the shape of the bird, the golden water - perfect! Congrats, Ernoe!
