Hi all -
It has been some time since I have posted anything on this board. To be honest with you, have not had much chance to shoot anything, with the new house and all. This shot was take in the afternoon light with my new G7. I have kinda went back to slide and film for now, but I still pull out the G7 out of the bag now and then. I will post more as soon as my film gets back from the lab. Comment always welcome.
Thank you,
Don H

I like it! The only thing I would probably change is to take out the flying bird at the very top edge of the picture because it feels a bit too distracting.

Thanks for the comments, I feel the same way. . I should have waited just one more second for the shot so the bird would have not been in the frame. Removing the bird is against my beliefs. Noticed you are from Sparks, NV. Cool a local guy from my area.

Thanks, Don

Bird's fine, but the horizon leans to the right. A slight straightening tweak, and print it!

Looks good either way - with or without. Have to agree with Cubix Rube, though. Just a little straightening and......Awesome!

I'm with Jim...either or with the bird and straighten.

Nice to see you posting again, Don! Well captured!
