Maybe I'll play with this one some more, but I am pleased with this one.

I just wish that Smugmug would increase the large size to more than 600 pixels in the vertical so that portrait oriented shots could be adequately displayed.

    He is really quite a handsome fella! Never thought I would be saying that about a vulture! He looks like he is processed in black and white in color....hey! Didn't we have a "Challenge" like that??? Truly, it would make an awesome black and white print with the contrast punched up. thumb.gif

    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!"

    With the way you use light in your shots, I consider this a valued compliment. nod.gif
