thank you for the comment, Rich


I have been struggling making proper exposure when shooting the white egrets. they are so white and reflect so much light.I'll try increase the exposure next time.I didn't use the polarizing filter BTW.

Hi Guys, love checking on this thread daily.





On this shot, is the red too distracting?

[Brendan7]

Not at all IMO. Just makes the background a more interesting element.

I think the red is fine, it would be distracting if it was going through the subject.
