I noticed about 40 of these roosting yesterday with a lot of juveniles in tow.

I revisited today & tried to correct where I've been going wrong with balancing out the whites, but not that successfully - any tips welcome please as I got loads of good captures but sadly blown out.

Let me know your thoughts on these

Nice set of shots, white birds against a dark background are always going to be a real challenge. I reckon these aren't too bad.

Art that takes you there. http://www.artyman.co.​uk (external link)
