    Anytime you want to share some of those Photoshop tips, feel free to do so! Didn't we have a "how-to" photoshop thread going at some point?
    Thanks Denise, I am trying to talk Joel into putting his recipe on the "Forum Tips" it really works well.


    BTW - This is the photo they printed in the newspaper. It actually looked pretty good blown up in newspaper color!
    Very Nice work on that Snowy Owl---maybe next year they will drop down in to New Mexico.....

    Nice composition Franco. My two cents: sometimes a low view point works for these kind of shots.

    What lens did you use for this shot? It seems that the focus is off or something....

    I'm using a really cheap tamron tele lens. Too poor to afford the Canon tele L glass...So I just had to work with this slow lens xD and thanks for the suggestion and comment

    Bob....that is a sweet series of photos. #2, 4, 6 are my favorites. #2 is pure art.

    One quick comment, but is the horizon off a bit in 1&3? Could just be topography....But again, excellent photos. I really enjoyed them.

    Denise....great shot of the snowy and congrats on being published....again.....

    OK, here is a sample of my experience at the Bosque with Bob Williams ( as he said, we had a great time and we found out that we have alot in common outside of photography as well. So it looks like the start of a good friendship. He and his wife were terrific hosts and I hope to reciprocate in the future)













    I have a couple thousand more images to look through so...............more will come soon I hope.
