If steroids are illegal for athletes, should PS be illegal for models?

It wasn't too difficult, but required a little thunkin'.

I wanted a shot with my fisheye of a 'circle of ibis's' feeding around the camera. I was hoping for the type of shot that you usually see with kids in a circle looking down at the camera, kind of like THIS (external link), but with birds. My original plan was put the camera on a plate, and put bread pieces all around it, and with a remote, wait for them to come. I decided against the paper plate, and went with a small box with a hole cut out for the lens, and then just put the bread on the box around the lens. Used a shutterboss, and while feeding the ibis, ducks, crows, squirrels, cranes, and everything else that came up to me, I intermittently clicked the remote. Got lots of shots of the sky (no birds), and quite a few shots of one or two birds pecking away at the bread (and lens, SEE THIS THREAD). This guy decided this was going to be his box, and he got on top of it, and played king of the hill. He was up there for quite some time.

I also had a film camera at the ready, and I may have a slight BTS photo I can post next week when the flm gets back (B&W), but until then, that's how I did it in words.
