Another strong image, beautifully created. Congratulations on the TT finish and, even more, for the cover photo of the Estes Park News.

Congratulations on the TT finish, Mark. I especially like the water in the foreground. Beautiful colors and translucence.

Photographing Wild Birds

I love the bokeh at f/5.6. I've been debating whether to buy Canon's 300mm or 400mm. This image leads me to believe the 400mm may be the better choice. (I can't believe that the "participants" gave this a 5.8462. Too bad there isn't a way to compare their votes with their own photos; I bet it would be a joke.) I've always enjoyed your images and the fact that you put detail in your comments.

Good eye. The one thing I would have liked is a bit more sharpening on the facade. It looks a bit soft to my eye. Still, I like the image well enough for a 6.

Beer will do that to you. Seriously, though, this photo has some excellent interaction from all of them. Some serious trash on the floor, too. Good image.

I like the tonal range of this image. There are two things that I think are questionable, though. The woman's hand looks like it suffers from excess noise reduction or other processing. Secondly, unless she is actually smoking that stick, I would have removed it. Everything else is spot on IMHO. (Just my 2 cents.)

I like the point of view and the back lighting along the road.

Waiting For The Perfect Shot

I hope the fog didn't burn off while he was waiting. As for your photo, I like the leading lines and the depth of field. My eye had no trouble running down the walkway to the photographer and then along the bridge to the background. Nicely done.

Nice lighting, good lines. I wish their faces were stationary as the blur takes away from the total image IMHO. (Just my 2 cents.)
