I went over to Tampa the other day to see Springsteen and I'm still in recovery mode. I'll have to let the pics speak for themselves w/o a title

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!"

    Wow, Harry, I would have loved to have seen Springsteen, but these photos are a great consolation prize. That Anhinga shot is amazing--at first glance it looks like it has grown a fish head. Just wonderful as always! clap.gifclapclap.gif Best, Pam

    I see that I'm going to have to consult with you before I do a title on my next post.

    Very nice shots, Harry. Especially nice job of nailing the whites of the egret.

    The third one is superb with contrasting colors, and the last one is so calming, makes me wish I'm by the lake watching this bird and thinking of nothing but beauty of nature.

    #1 and #3 are the standouts for me ... brilliant.
    Looks like you had a great day out. Thanks for posting ... and I love your "title" ... got me sucked in with curiosity!!
    My opinion does not necessarily make it true. What you do with my opinion is entirely up to you.

    Thanks Pam but there is no consolation for missing a Springsteen concert.

    Thanks John but I actually screwed up the expsoure on the egret. You can see a blown out spot on its shoulder. Fortunately the "Detail Extractor" filter in NIK's Photo Efex does a good job of recovery when you don't screw up too badly. :whew

    I figured if that works in Street/PJ then why not wildlife? ne_nau.gif

    Food shots always work.
