Sorry forgot about the formatting

Nice meeting you mate, some nice shots

The owl on the head is nice but I love the colors of the giraffe photo

very nice shot.

incredible colors in the giraffe photo

Thanks all

The Giraffe shot is an HDR

Nice series, especially photo #2.

How did you do the HDR with the Giraffe? Did you just do the background and then layer the Giraffe back in? I've never had any luck with HDR on subjects that can move (because they always do for me)

You are right - its too difficult to bracket an exposure on subjects that move. I made this from 1 shot. Since I shoot in raw, I opened the file in Camera Raw, changed the exposure by 1 stop and save 5 different versions of the image (exposures of -2,-1,0,+1 and +2). I used these 5 exposures (saved files) to create the HDR

heh....the little bird on head....

giraffe shot is great

Thanks
