These proud birds used to be hatched in Connecticut, USA, then migrate through out the world. Somehow their nesting grounds have moved to other helms and now their proud plumage has taken on a distinctly red/orange hue. Somehow they seem to be the same species since they still manage to migrate everywhere. Jack Davis wrote: > They seem to have been enjoying a nice high iodine diet. > > Jack > --- "P. J.

Actually they had a pretty good histogram, and were backlit. I had to lighten the image and decrease contrast to bring out a little more detail in the "bird's" front surfaces. I decided to do that, rather than building a mask or using a fill flash action in Photoshop. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > In a message dated 4/20/2007 3:08:54 P.M.
