    Nice capture on the tootsie pop spokesman. :D I've not shot an owl...or any other "cool" B.O.P. yet. The one thing that bugs me and my backyard is that funny looking yellow tree that NH is perched on. ne_nau.gif What's with that? I thought these were called "nature & wildlife" photos? Unless I'm mistaken.....that's not a rare tree that birds sittin' on. I might have cropped it out....or PS'ed a real one in it's place eek7.gifrolleyes1.gif It's nice and sharp....though. thumb.gif

    Your right don't care for it either, but no choice. And I've decided on keeping it real it was there when I shot it so there it remains :D

    Excellent captures thumb.gif of the very rare purple-eye owl. yelrotflmao.gif

    You had a nice series of shots of this rare creature and you ruined the mood by throwing in a shot of the common NH. 15524759-Ti.gif

    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!"
