On my way out of the Zoo, I decided to get one last shot of this guy.

    Thanks, Ben.

    If there were a reincarnation after life, I would choose to be a vulture in Africa! Sit around in an Acacia tree all day and let the rest of 'em fight it out while you relax and clean up the leftovers! nod.gif A 70 year old vulture is not uncommon, either.

    Well - I think that is as good a shot of an ugly bird as we'll ever see! It's a little blown out behind it's head, but otherwise nice lighting.

    I'm glad you mentioned the blown highlights. I just checked my original, and I blew those highlights in editing.:bash I guess I didn't notice since the areas are white.........so back to the computer to do it right.

    Thanks, Cinda. nod.gif
