Hi Janice

This is excellent, great catch seeing these fellas would not keep still... good sharpness and colour.

Is that a fly in his hair ?

Havent had a chance to look at mine yet.

Do I like it, Janice! It's fabulous!
It makes me laugh to look at it and it also brings back hilarious memories of when Rod Hull and Emu were interviewed by Michael Parkinson. I'm not sure if you would have seen it, but the emu went for Michael's neck! The whole studio was in pandemonium!

This has those hilarious connitations! There's no doubt he wants to be photographed with that eye-to-eye contact! Wonderful detail!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

What a great capture Janice.
I think these guys are some of the ugliest looking creatures around.
I'm so glad I wasn't bor an Emu.
Wonderful work.

Hi Janice,
LOL. Jan, I always like this funny expression of an emu. And with this one, it looked very funny indeed. He looked as if he was drunk after an evening party, and now is planning to go for overnight party...

Very well exposed with pin sharp focus to capture the details, and light are very well managed. Loved to see the result of great dof as well.

TFS and Regards,
Ramdan.

THis handsome character appears to be very annoyed at being photographed! May be you did not give him/her time to coamb the hair before pointing a camara in front of him/her?

Hi Janice,

A face only a mother could love (and other tl members too)! This one brought a smile and giggle to me. I can only imagine what this bird is thinking!

LOL

Nice sharpness, detail, and of course THAT HAIR!

Hi Janice,
The thumbnail had me laughing!!! This is one funny looking fella capture with great details and talking to you at the same time! Wonderful clarity of lighting, colors and the image...uh by the way, was he asking you for a comb???
Thanks for sharing,

Fran

PS when my son was much younger we went to a bird sanctuary and they had emus there, one of them took offense to the hat Casey was wearing and repeated took it off and threw it to the ground! Casey loved the inter-action with the bird, it was great fun to watch too!

Janice - what a fabulous shot! I am glad this shot didn't escape you! Remarkable expression on his face. It's the 1st time I had a chance to look into the eyes of an EMU...so THIS is how they look like!
Excellent lighting and focus!

Bonjour Janice
Comment ai-je pu passer à côté de cette photo ? Quel look ! Un brin de toilette et un passage chez le coiffeur sont peut-être nécessaires, mais voilà un sourire ravageu ! Cet émeu... m'émeut !
Bonne journée.
Antoine.

Hi Janice,
This is priceless, you did so well to grab this, I know they don't keep their 'bird brain' head still for very long.
I did see this image the night you posted, but the last few weeks have been exhausting.
I just didn't feel like logging on...things are a little easier now, so I'm back at last.
Cheers,
Pete.

Nice capture, this fella has a smile on his face, looks a bit like a messy kid who has been playing, particularly with the bug caught in its feathers
