    Phenominal shot Paul. I love all the detail in the feathers.

    Great shot, and amazing detail. I'm just not huge on the unfocused branches in the bottom 1/4 of the frame, but with that being said, the top 3/4 definately makes up for it!

    Great shot,

    Jared

    Wow Paul, that is a great shot, definitely brings a new thought to a "birds eye view" ! I like the depth of field used, it helps to frame the subject and provides contrast to the sharp detail of the feathers of the Dove - very good!

    Sharp, sharp. I think I cut my eye. That's some sweet glass you're toting!
    Nice shot.

    great shot. The comp, dof & tones are all great. Great look by the bird too.

    Thanks to everyone for the comments. As always, they are very much appreciated. Since she is sitting on eggs, I presume, maybe I can follow this lady as she raises her young. We'll see.

    Thanks, again.
    Paul
