The Bath

[snowyowl13]

I hesitated about posting some of these but then thought "why not!". I've been trying to catch the energy and excitement of birds bathing. Even though the focus is off in some of these, the blurring may even help, I think that I've had some success. Would they have been more effective in a smaller size? I wondered about running them through Neat Image but decided against it, it tends to make the images too smooth and unnatural looking. C & C, encouraged.

Very cute shots Dan. I wish the birds would use the birdbath I put up. :)

Nice angle and very natural looking bath makes this set work for me.
