Wow that's great! If there was enough res I would love just the bird head / neck / wing crop 8

Nice choice of subject and composition. Good strong colors.

Wonderful, but perhaps just a tad oversharpened. I can see a trace of white haloes around the birds.

Wow, Love the detail and colors. Looks almost prehistoric, Nicely done.

Great pose captured!

Great capture, spoiled only a little by some haloing around your subject, probably due to shadow/highlight, etc. Love the cormorants(?)

Rather cool shot, at first could not see two birds but on a relook can. I feel that this needs a little more playing in the editing, with the contract to make the birds ping a little more. but it is great anyway. bumping up.

Is this in Stanley Park? Vancouver?
01/17/2006 08:14:13 AM
a little obvious on the dodging, maybe lighten the whole pic instead?

What a great capture. I love the colors and composition. The sunlight casts perfectly upon the birds, leaving neither harsh shadows or blown out areas. The sky seems too teal though, and there is a halo effect around the birds (usually from over-sharpening)

Excellent shot, slight halo from the sharpening maybe?
