Achoopes,

Very enjoyable shot...(you could work on it with enhancement software, when you choose)...

They are elusive and do not stay in one place for long...with your presence there, they get going right away...

I see turkeys from time to time, now that my neighbor feeds birds. Previously, they stopped by on a sunny day, to bask in the warm sand mound out front, making "sand (as in snow) angels". That was mine first close sighting in three years. (I live near the state forest.)

I don't have Adobe photo shop yet....:rolleyes: Haven't had time to work on any photos in detail...saving the task for this winter.... I use any of the several software packages that came with the Canon 30D Camera:D , a Kodak EasyShare DX 6460, and two different scanners...Also a internal replacement CD drive came with some software....Some palates are better than others...

The best is Canon's Digital Photo Professional (compatible with the newer computers) with Zoom Browser EX and EOS Utility for downloading and storage.:D

Visit the Canon web site and see if you have upgrades to any graphics/photo programs for your outfit.

Adobe, I respect. In the early years, I had two MACS and Adobe was in a class of it's own, with several art/graphics/photo programs. It helped me excell in the marketing and promotions end of mine business.
