    Interesting shot Ben. thumb.gif I'm assuming this effect is caused by the foreshortening and shallow depth of field of the telephoto lens. ne_nau.gif I've ended up with some interesting shots where the foreshortening of the tele produced a shot that looked like the bird was flying right into a tree, seawall, or house....when in fact, the bird was not even close to hitting anything. I assume this is what's going on here. Might explain the blurry bird next to the in focus bird (unless of course you messed in evil PS)

    Neat capture Ben. The OOF bird and the bird in focus make a great contrast. Great Job thumb.gif

    Good shot Ben. It would have been perfect if the both had been in focus.

    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!"
