    A couple snowy birdies.

    Back to the park today to practice with my camera, before I get serious. These 2 were shot at partial metering and plus 2/3 EC, to compensate for the snow.

    Super job, shooting birds against the snow is tough. You really nailed these

    Yes, excellent job with both the exposure and post processing to keep the details in the shadows without blowing out the whites.

    The low angle of the sun is key for shots like this. Thanks for posting.

    Thanks for the compliments, all. Also, thanks to the powers that be, for the feature. It certainly is an honor and gives a guy a good feeling.
