Dave, I really love that photo! The light and detail is stunning, also great compo, was it cropped?

[Dave Johnston]

Thanks for the quick reply, Bill. Sounds like it was a fun workshop to attend.

Yes, it was. Not a 100% crop but it was probably around 50-75%. I was around 15 feet from the subject and each bird is a little smaller than a ring-bill seagull. The little guys wouldn't let me get too close. Makes me want that 400 f5.6. Eh..... someday. [^]

this birdie showed up outside my house and immediately found its lunch. Had this kit lens attached to the cam at the time, so not a really sharp image





Chinese for lunch?
