Just as others have said -- Great composition. Loved the way the birds and wave pattern is in the picture (though I personally wouldn't have noticed the one-legged bird story if you didn't mention it). It does seem flat on my monitor but then I have never calibrated it. Thanks for sharing, Gaurav

Bruce, Love the line of the birds. Composition is totally well done. May not be the case here, but there are birds that appear to rest on just one leg. Did you watch long enough to tell if this is one of those species? Jack --- Bruce Dayton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The poor little one legged

Yes, I did watch that bird quite a bit. All the others of the same species stood on two legs and hopped about on two legs. This one stood on one and hopped about on one. As best I can tell, he really is missing the other leg. Thanks for the comment. -- Bruce Thursday, March 9, 2006,

Nice photograph, Bruce. Everything seems to come together well in this one. It looks a scosh flat on my screen, but I'm using the old monitor today. Shel [Original Message] From: Bruce Dayton The poor little one legged guy standing in the water facing back at the group gave me a

Love the composition. Especially the way the birds are oriented, with the outcast bird orthogonal to the others. The wave edge shape is very complimentary also. Nice catch. rg Bruce Dayton wrote: The poor little one legged guy standing in the water facing back at the group gave me a

Thanks Shel. On my screens it doesn't seem flat - but maybe others will give some feedback. -- Best regards, Bruce Thursday, March 9, 2006, 9:22:03 AM, you wrote: SB Nice photograph, Bruce. Everything seems to come together well in this SB one. It looks a scosh flat on my screen, but I'm

Thanks Gonz. I waited for the waves hoping that the birds wouldn't change position too quick. They didn't seem particularly bothered by humans, so that helped. -- Best regards, Bruce Thursday, March 9, 2006, 9:51:32 AM, you wrote: G Love the composition. Especially the way the birds are

Nice shot, Bruce. Well composed and executed. On my screen it looks just about right. It's flat light of course, but that's entirely appropriate and, in fact, desirable for a shot like this. I might crop a bit off the bottom of the frame, but that's largely a matter of personal taste. Paul

I like the composition; always liked diagonal waves curves, plus the line that you get by connecting the birds complete this one for me. It is a touch flat in my monitor but didn't bother me that much. On 3/9/06, Bruce Dayton [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: The poor little one legged guy standing in
