[LRFlex] Re: Not another Heron shot...

David,
I didn't mean to suggest that the smaller posting was not a good shot, it
is. But when I went to look at your second posting of the goose I didn't
scroll down to see that you had posted the complete image again and it
looked like you had cropped the image to emphasize the goose more.  Since I
went along with having AT&T use a faster web posting program to my computer,
it has made all the shots posted on the list much granier and some color has
wierd  bleeding on images. I couldn't see any detail on your photos. Not
good when you want to view the quality of a Leica photo.  I will have to get
this corrected.

You  have a friendly face and look like you enjoy life.
Victoria and Vancouver Island is one of the most picturesque places I've
been.

 The head shot of the goose in your gallery is very good.

Venture

Hmmmm... I'm not sure, Venture, how the goose fills "more of the
frame".  This photo is identical to the smaller version, except for
being  at 150 dpi, which makes for a bigger screen image.  The first
version posted was from this scan, but reduced to 75dpi for faster loading
and more reasonable size.

No matter... I'm glad you liked it! :)

You might want to check out my other goose shot... at

http://www.horizon.bc.ca/~dnr Click on Photo Gallery and then click on the
thumbnail of the goose in the upper left corner.  Now, this goose "fills
the frame"!

>Do you ever get any Wood Ducks in your area? They are my absolute favorite.

Woodie's are very rarely seen here... though the do turn up.

The Harlequins are reasonably common, but **very** skittish, and if near
the shore, start swimming out to see as soon as you hit the beach.  Even
with the 400/f6.8 and a 2x extender it's very difficult to get much more
than a black dot in the center of the frame.

Cheers!
