Great shot Kess. I'd really like to see just the one bird (the one in back is especially nice), but these 2 together is nice too. Great shot.

Kess, you got the exposure on the mark this time. Well done!
Just a bit more room at bottom would help ... :roll:

Really nice job on the whites. I like the repeating pattern of the two heads.

A nice scene well composed and the whites are fantastic. This looks a little flat on my monitor, maybe adding some saturation to help the colors and a slight s-curve in curves would add some contrast to make it pop.

Another 7D user! What flash were you using if I may ask? (I'm trying to figure out settings on mine that make sense). Beautiful shot. :)
