I ran into this snow bunting last weekend on the beach. (Took a lesson from Harry, I think)

    the last one is pretty darn terrific. I like it when people show birds I've never seen before...out of the ordinary little guy for me.

    Glenn, Good pictures. Great compositions! Only a pity that a small twig is in front of the bird at photo 2. But that is minor.

    What lens did you used?

    Very interesting set of images. The standout favourite for me is the third picture. Love the pano crop, and the background is just lovely. thumb.gif

    IMO number two is the pick of these images. Fading away in all drections from the subject. Very cool, Glenn.thumb.gif

    #2 is awesome. Cute little bugger, that's a new species for me too.

    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 djkraan! I used a 500IS F\4 with a 1.4TC.

    Not much I could do about the twig.

    Thanks Harry! This one was quite lost. They don't usually make it this far south.

    Beautiful set! They're all great but I love the DOF in the first and his perch in the second. Nice job with the shots!

    Glenn, these are all just great! I like #3, but one indication of how terrific they are is that the favorites are evenly spread out among your many fans, it seems! Best, Pam
