I worked this one after the comments I received on my last post. But this still a push process slide, and I think it's all I can get from it.

Nikon F90x, TC-14b, 500mm F4p, Kodak VS push 1 stop.(not SW)

Thanks for looking.

Michel, This is sweet with the flowers. Some fill flash would help bring up the bird more. Well done.

Despite the angle, the shot works well and is very attractive

Michel,

Very nice shot. The colors and the light look great. The flowers add a nice touch to the image.

Awesome Composition with all the bird and flora sharp and perfectly composed. This seems to be better this way than with any flash since even though the lightning is even enough it is slightly dappled bringing a unique dimension that I really like.

Beautiful image. Like how it's surrounded by blossoms. That sure is a great combo of gear you got there. :wink: :)

This is one beautiful "puffy" Cedar Waxwing. The colors are outstanding.
