Nicely photographed coot shot, fotoi! Very sharp with nice color in the water.

I like your artistic photography, Kirk! Both are very nice, but personally, the second shot with the light streaming in is my favorite.

Very nice capture, Mark! That early morning light is really pleasant.

Terrific capture of the American Bittern, Paul! Very nice setting and the color is great! This shot certainly does pop!

Thanks, Mike. I guess everything really is a matter of personal taste. Some people on another web site told me they thought the Topaz effect was too much. Personally, I like a picture that has some pop and pizzaz to it.

Excellent White Ibis capture!

It's nice to see birds from afar. Nice job!

Another nice Kestrel shot!

Super Shrike capture!

Nice close-up of the vulture! They do serve a good purpose even though they're so ugly. :cry:

Congratulations on the rare find!

Very nice Kestrel capture!

Thank you very much. I just wish it had been a little closer.

Oops, forgot to post this earlier today. It's a shot of a double-crested cormorant regulating its body temperature. Enjoy!
Question: Are pictures enlarged to 100% when they're posted here and is the exposure increased? Also, is it me? My pics look brighter here than in my software image. I had to go back and darken this shot to get it to where it is now. I didn't have to do that on another site. Not complaining really, just curious.
