69 Jun 21 Comment Geoff,
I am always impressed when someone is able to capture a clear image of a bird in flight - I expect 1/2000 helps a lot to do that. I am not bothered by the direction of flight. No everyone reads left to right. Good image.		 Jun 8th
69 Jun 21 Comment Brenda,
I agree with Mervyn - I would crop a bit down from the top and get rid of the intruding branch (if not for PSA judging).		 Jun 8th
69 Jun 21 Comment Jacob,
Yes, I agree that the post processing, particularly the saturation and the heavy vignette, is a bit too much. I think the original background would be OK if it could be blurred a bit and darkened just a tad.		 Jun 8th
69 Jun 21 Comment Candy,
One eyed portraits in people are usually not attractive but maybe with birds there is a bit more leeway?		 Jun 8th
69 Jun 21 Comment Pierre,
I agree, unless submitting to PSA, I would remove the stick in front and, regardless, lighten the eye area a bit (although I doubt that it can be lightened much because it is dark).		 Jun 8th
69 Jun 21 Comment Mervyn,
Great catch with the two chicks mirroring one another. This one could definitely be contest material.		 Jun 8th

69 Jun 21 Reply Brenda,
In the old days, the slowest shutter speed for handheld was generally recommended to be 1/60. With modern cameras with shake reduction mechanisms, it is possible to go a go bit slower (as you know, I expect). Usually though, I would use a tripod -- I just didn't want to drag it around on my hike in the woods.
Everything is getting very green now, although we really need some rain.		 Jun 8th
