I love photographing wild birds, and I have to say that I think this is a cracking little shot. The whites look a little burnt out in places, but that doesn't really detract from the picture. The bird is stunning, lovely and sharp and the colours are superb. I was fortunate enough to see these myself when I visited the USA but I never managed a picture of one. Jealous.
Thanks for the reassurance that the KCCO Jacket pic looked okay in B/W and processed. I don't do much of that but thanks to 365, feel inspired to try.
