23622843-L.jpgI am not only going thru to get the really in focus shots, I am figuring out how to best show the "babies". I think this is better than two photos. I am going to try other methods, probably on other shots, clear shots.

Plus. These finally showed up from being uploaded last night. (I uploaded, they were there, then they weren't. Smugmug must have decided on head games to make me go to bed.)

g Good shot, IMO, please comment, hehe, and if you all have ways to "show" things artistically, please share. I do not have arrows on my PS.

    Hey Ginger,

    Its a good shot and didn't need the rectangle around the chick. Let the pic stand on its own (its good enough).

    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!"

    Hey, thanks to both of you.

    Harry, we know those are chicks there, others are not seeing them. Maybe in this forum all would, hard to tell.

    But the shot I did of the Jay yakking at the Osprey. My son thought the jay was a baby osprey.

    And in this huge nest, I thought the babies might be getting "lost". They sure blend in, ugly little things. I like this one as the eye on the one chick shows up.

    Thanks again.

    Thanks, Jeff. I guess I would do one for my son and send the one to this group that I have anyway for printing purposes, if I were to do it.........or sell it.rolleyes1.gif

    I was frustrated, they are such small things. I have never, not even with Harry's, seen uglier chicks. I love raptors, they are so regal, gorgeous creatures, then to see these aliens they have produced, it amazes me.

    Of course this happens in the "human" world, too. I have seen beautiful babies grow up less beautiful, and we all know the story of the Ugly Duckling, I have seen the ugliest babies become just gorgeous, as we determine "gorgeous".:D

    Also, the appropriate makeup can help the humans, but with a bird......what we see, I assume, is the "naked" bird.

    thanks, ginger
