Sounds tasty :P

Sounds tasty :P

 

I am not sure to decode the sense of "tasty" in this…

When I shoot, I don't kill but immortalize… I like to think.

 

So Ronnie, if you mean "visually" tasty then yes, I hope

to have an eyeball blast!  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:

 

I got a female from the marsh and I hope to get the male

from a tipped spot on the river some 17 miles north of here!

Both of you have taken your shots in the mid-day light

which will provide good details of the feathers but not

stronger, more stable and it permits tighter crops around the

subject.

Both your contributions would merit their own thread!

 

HNY!
