In my recent trip to mid/lower Florida , it just seemed that the wildlife is so much more patient for people , not like Chicago-Land ..
Also , I just recieved LightRoom 2 , and was playing with the vignetting sliders .. Tell me what you think , yeah , or Neigh ???

    Great shots! I'm not a huge fan of the vignetting, I think it would work better if the vignette was more subtle but overall I really do like the shots! What camera/lens did you use for these?

    I think you've done an excellent job on the images themselves. The expsoures are bang on and the images are very sharp and detailed. However, in my opinion, the vignetting is overdone. I think if you want to use vignetting, it should be far more subtle.

    Thank you for the comments all !! It seems it's a mixed compromise on the vignetting . I tyhink as others have said , maybe a bit on the subtle side would be better.. I do thik that the first shot works well , but that is my opinion ...

    As for the last shot , I used LightRoom 2 , with minor sharpening , that's it ... :D

    Outstanding captures Wally, the best I've seen from you so far. clap.gif Florida is a great locale for wildlfie shooting.

    I'm not crazy about the vignetting though.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
