I have cropped these pretty heavily. What do you think?

    Thanks, I did it because Harry suggested it and I also wanted to see how far I could go with my D3.

    The GBH isn't cropped that much and looks good at the full size. The other one (I can't spell the name of the birds) is greatly improved by the crop.

    Outstanding Keith especially the first capture. I've found taht the D3 images take very well to being cropped.

    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!"

    Thanks Harry. There are several that I have that are good when I crop heavily but there are also several that when I cropped them they look terrible. It brought out my deficiencies as a photographer. The D3 helps a lot but also enhances your mistakes.
