    In # 1 and #2, as a personal preference, I'd like to see the entire bird....all feathers....really sharp. Maybe go for a little more DOF. I'm guessing your intent was otherwise. The last shot is a great catch.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Hey Tom,

    Thanks for your input, and it's duly noted!

    To shoot at this distance, with this FL (302mm effective), I would have needed to shoot at probably f/16 to get everything sharp. That would have pushed the ISO up to 6400, which I didn't want due to noise issues. This was a non-IS setup.

    I like Ducky #2 a lot and of course #6. Am just having a little hard time with water movement or something in #5; And, #4 shows a great sense of humor. Anyhow, this is how I see.
