I was at Ding Darling NWR today and this guy was hanging out by the side of wildlife drive posing for photos.

The images are fairly sharp but you could improve em by using the shadow/highlight tool to bring more details in the underwing and to lighten the eye shadow. Best regards - Reyno

Depends I guess on what program you have. Amazing shots, though. You got some good ones! Canon 50D, 40D, Tokina 12-24,Canon 18-55,Canon 28-135 IS, Canon 50 1.8,Canon 75-300 5.6,

Ding Darling is on my short list. Sam Thanks for the compliment but I can't take any credit for fieldcraft, Ding Darling has a road running through it where everyone crawls along at 5 mph looking for wildlife, This guy was about 20 feet away so I just pulled over and got out of the truck. It is a nice refuge though with a lot of variety, there were also some roseate spoonbills there today but they were a little far away to get good shots of. 70D/24-105L
