Thanks Hunter!! Your shots have been inspiring!
It is rarest of occurrences for me to sort of like my own shot.....but if I had to only pick one and delete rest, last shot would be the one that I would keep....worked extra hard to ensure that closed Nictitating membrane drew attention and at least on my monitor, the iris is still slightly visible....(thanks for dropping the knowledge, didn't know the term Nictitating membrane till you mentioned it).
What I couldn't convey in form of art, perhaps words will help change your mind regarding the last one.....the picture immediately made me think, this has to be the "Lord of the Illuminati"!
Keep up the great work! Cheers!
Beautiful work makes you stop and look into the shot more, draws you in
11 n 7 are my favorites

I took another look and I will say it's growing on me. It does have some type of mystical look to it.

Thanks Chris! Greatly appreciated!!
Hope you are well and getting your shooting fingers itchy!
Your color images are good technically, but to my eye, seem slightly over sharpened , and over saturated. Maybe I am just cranky this afternoon, but I wonder if your color images might be even more pleasing if they were ever so slightly softer, both in color saturation and sharpening. This is not a photographic issue, but of the artist's taste.

Thanks JBR!!
Thanks Jim! I appreciate the feedback and agree with it. Did go heavy on vibrance and clarity on some shots. Great to be reminded that it did go over and was noticed.........for the little bird shots, I never feel if they are truly sharp and they had such brilliant colors that I wanted to highlight it....knew I might be messing it up....will check it in future! Cheers!
