Ant, these are excellent shots.

Nice look in the eye of the bear in no.3, but no.5 takes the biscuit - very nice shot, lovely pose.

Paul.

Ant , as usual a great set

I can’t believe that you had the nerve to post these soft focus old images.

I like your 1st and 4th soft images best.

Harsha, can you open Ant’s brain and see what’s wrong.


Jude

It was a tough choice Jude but I went for it

I've always wondered if the Canon Calibration would improve anything............. So I decided to give it a shot for the heck of it

Harsha didn't have to open my head >> MRI Results are in >> It's dead space in there

I'm sure the guyz at Irvine are having a blast right now playing w ur 800 in the parking lot or peaking at hot chicks sunbathing at 400 yards away
Sweet shot man..specially the 1st and the last w the nello perspective!!

Your slow my friend but you do catch on
I bet the Canon guys are taking pics of hot chicks down at the beach with my 800

Glad you enjoyed the Nello Perspective > Is there enough rectum in it for you or does it need more to qualify for a "FULL NELLO"

I may have the entire reflection > I cropped this. I thought it looked better
without the entire reflection and if I put the whole reflection in I always get negative
comments with regards to it.

Which just goes to show : You can't please everyone

thanks for the kind comment Vicki

I found shot #1 and the Merganser shot to be the most stunning of the bunch. I don't know how you can be without your camera or glass. Nice shooting with you when you were down here.

Well good news for me > they found several issues with my Mark III
Replaced parts and made adjustments.
So it wasn't all in my head
