So fluffy! Very nice shot.

Hmm... a little 'football shoulders' for my taste. I'd suggest having the model rotate slightly toward the key light...



Very nice; it looks like you and that lens are getting on well!

It was a balmy -13C here this afternoon, he, he...

I guess they can't hear me yelling instructions at them through the window

Thanks John !

I'm pretty impressed with the new lens so far...

It was +10 here (Celsius, I don't do Fahrenheit . ) It's supposed to be +15 christmas day. But since I am totally alone this Christmas, I'm going to spend it in Algonquin Provincial Park, where I will hopefully have snow, grey jays, fox, moose, pine marten and really keeping my fingers crossed Boreal Chickadee. I've only seen two Boreal's in my lifetime and I really want a shot that I can print.

Now I could live with those temperatures

A day in the Park sounds like a wonderful way to escape !

My family is in Arizona for Xmas and although I have been invited over to friends I have a bad feeling I'm going to be at home pouting with my cold, sigh...

Best of the season to you Barb and good luck catching a Boreal Chickadee !

Cheers, Don
