I did everything I do...........everything, smile! This is a large crop which is rather unusual for me. I uploaded, culled out the really bad photos, then picked this for my Daily Photo. Since I did add curves at the end to give it a bit more pop, I am posting it. Is this better? Than the linen skirt, if you remember it........or if not, is it ok?

It may be a crop, but it is also a large, so I don't know why it isn't large......?

After all is said and done, it is the sweet tea.

    Its a very nice photo, I think the crop worked out great. The wings of the mother egret is cool because it shows that shes still there and looking over them, kinda cool. Nice job Ginger.

    Thanks, Mark............and after all that I put a squirrel on the daily photo,rolleyes1.gif .

    It will be chicks, and more chicks for the next couple of months, or longer. There are no birds in the other haunts, they are all nesting.

    I did get reflections and stuff today..........and, of course, the squirrel!

    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!"

    Very nice, Ginger. It has plenty of pop. It's not very large because it's a vertical shot. The verticals are never very large when posted.

    The crop is cool. Just right, I'd say. thumb.gif

    I love the chicks shots. Be sure to send some to Kodak. I think baby birds are every bit as loveable as puppies.:D
