"Damn, that's a long way down !'

What a cool shot, Dave. He does appear to have signs of acrophobia. :p

This is a wonderful portrait shot of the swallow, Richard. The sharpness and detail are A-1.

"All puffed up." Excellent shot, Richard.

Thanks Mike for your encouraging words

Pretty bird and pretty background. I like that color!

Thank you, Bob!

Stunning image, Shalu. The low camera angle really makes this shot stand out so nicely.

Thank you very much, Mike!

Incredibly nice, razor sharp, close-up shots, Shalu. That bird certainly possesses some beautiful colors.
