    Isn't it much easier working on a large bird? Now if warblers were that size ... :D

    Excellent portrait capture. The head angle is perfect.

    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!"

    Thanks very much, Dennis. :D

    I try to get out early as the weather permits. Not only the color of the light but the long shadows and reflections all make getting out early worthwhile.

    Beautiful work Ric.

    The lighting, the color, the head angles and you all worked to make them beautiful photos.
