The light looks OK to me. :)

Thanks, Archibald. It's not bad, just a little brighter than what I would've liked.

Nice one, Mike. It's very lifelike, the feathers look natural.

Kirk, your compliment needs to go to Bill in Texas. It's his shot, not mine.

Outstanding shot. Great composition, and the colors work so well with the goldfinch. A real wall hanger.

Fantastic capture, Paul! I feel kinda bad for the frog. He looks like he's pleading for help.

What an outstanding shot of the junior Purple Gallinule, Paul! That foot can't possibly belong to this little guy.:eek: He musta found it somewhere and decided to try it on for size :p

Outstanding close-up shot of the Common Moorhen baby, Paul. I never realized that they are this colorful at birth.

You made a very nice capture of the Western Sandpiper, sogs! I like your inclusion of the mudflat that it's feeding in.

Thank you kindly, sogs. They mated and hatched 3 babies (that I saw), all of which sadly turned up MIA. :-(
