A bit ragged looking. You would be too (I do..) if you spent your entire day in the relentless sun, here in the Nevada desert.

40D, 560mm (400L + 1.4X), RAW

Cheers!

    You achieved a nice low angle with this killdeer. The reddish-orange eye ring stands out nicely. You may consider cloning out some of those stray OOF grass blades though.

    Good idea about the cloning. I'll give it a shot.

    Nice killdeer captyrethumb.gif , shame that the only bird you could find had to be behind some of the few blades of grass there were on your desert in the relentless sun. :D

    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!"
