I love it, Alfred, A bit more USM. How much of a crop is this?

Not much Sandy. This year I am taking my 180 Macro to the Farm got some ideas. Want to set up a couple of slaves for lighting . I was using a very slow shutter speed for my picture and took it with my over the shoulder camera (hand held)

Alfred,

Alfred, this is a perfect motif shot, way cool. You'll need to resize it to 650 pixels on the longest side, you have 993.

Now that's "out-of-the-box". I hope I don't have nightmares about giant chickens. Very nice composition!
I just got a macro lens, so I can't wait to see what I can come up with.

Cheers,

Absolutely fascinating! Could use a tad more sharpening, but I think it's a very interesting photo. Is this a crop?
