I think they are all pretty good. The only one I don't really like is #4. You can't see the eyes, and its hard to tell what is in focus.

Petting zoo?

I'm a parrot junkie and help with some parrots rescues ... your Scarlet Macaw is incorrectly tagged as such, it's actually a Green Wing Macaw (often confused, but the determining identifing marking is that Scarlet Macaws eye patches are completely white and the Greenwing Macaw has the feathers that can been seen in these pictures - and for the record, each feather pattern on a Green Wing Macaw is as individual as a human finger print) ... :blushing:

Pictures are wonderful otherwise, I love the texture of the snake scales and the feathers in all those parrot faces (the African Grey is an awesome look)!

willis_927 : tx. to think of it, u're right. i'll keep this in mind
molested_cow: yup ... that's the designated name for it
LBPhoto: i googled for the ID and looked at the pics of the species. tx a lot for correcting me!

each feather pattern on a Green Wing Macaw is as individual as a human finger print

WOW!

Nice. I agree with every one about number 4 though. A greater DOF would have been nice. Also Is that a halo around number 3? It could be the background but if you edited it, be careful.

Also one more ID correction from me, #3 is some sort of plated skink, not a gecko.

Great shots overall.

Nice shots, you were able to get nice and close and you made the most of it!

#8 is about near perfect. The lighting, coloration and DOF is beautiful :thumbup:

- didnt edit the background, but i adjusted the mid/high contrast to bring out the details and colors on the skin
- i saw the sign on the window 'gecko' ... but a quick google revealed something else. it does look more like a skink. i'll leave the ID empty as for now

myfotoguy, Trever1t
thank you!
