Hello Vassilis,
Very nice shot of this crane, you brought out all the colors and the detail in the grey plumage very well. The exposure is nicely handled, showing the details very clear and sharp.

Hi Vassilis,
Perefect my friend, really perfect this colourfel sharp picture of this imposive Grey Crane! The DOF is perfect here, the blurred background gives the head of the bird really the attention which it deserved. A lovely posting my Greek friend!

Hello Vassilis!

I have seen a few of these crowned cranes lately on TL. But this one is really the best I have seen. Stunning light and clarity. Tight framing working well for a cool portrait of this crowned bird.
Well done !

Hi Vassilis,
Of course we had to go to the Zoo - grandchildren love that and despite the rain I got some photo-opportunities - I think I captured the same one, they are very decorative birds - lovely capture - yes - I see details in his white cheek - I think my picture is OE on the cheek. So very good job.
