I like this one Stuart. Nice sharp action shot with a good DOF. The exposure and lighting is nicely done too.Stuart Skelsey June 03, 2007
Hi Bill,Thanks for your kind comments. I have added the first shot to my gallery (slowly getting the hang of things). So whenever you have time it would be great to get your feedback, but no rush.

Very nice clarity and color in this wonderful stop-action shot Stuart. Congrats on making Editor's First Picks!I think they are some kind of Dove. Maybe a Mourning Dove. #4420377
