I would have cropped the grass sticks as they distract a little.

wow
01/14/2010 12:40:43 AM
I guess it's from vawendy. Excellent timing & focus. I think the colors are not pooping out to my expectation & missing a contrast little bit.

wonderfully timed capture! nicely done and his position in the frame is great!
01/13/2010 11:28:38 AM
Nailed it!!! Tough capture with snow and a moving bird. Maybe could take a slight contrast boost but the capture itself really wows me.
01/13/2010 11:22:10 AM
