Description

f/2.8 at 1/800 sec, ISO 100. Sat there just long enough for me to get a couple of shots. Handheld so went for a fast shutter speed at max aperture.

Well it sure looks to me as if you got the settings just right, Martin. This is lovely. I love the focus on the head and across the back wings and the background is wonderful. Great color combination, too. Congratulations on your gallery feature at 101. #9522507
