Very nice shots Jason. Looks like he's knocking his head on the stick. :)

Thanks for the info on the TC's. I'll look into it.

Beautiful shots, I love the soft light, poses and perfect b/g's... It would be intersting to see a bit cropp3ed off the left side but either way, both are fantastic shots, as always.:)

Hmmm its a toughie as to whicj is better the cropped or non-cropped version, personally I think the non-cropped just takes it for me, but I think in the end it comes down to personal preference.

Oh yeah almost forgot.....Great shots :)

The first one made me laugh but tecnically its quite a good shot. The second is very nice and the crop holds up well. Colors, poses, perch and BG all work nicely together.
