Nikon F5, Nikkor 500mm with 1.4x TC, SB26 flash (photographed a few yrs. ago, and do not recall particulars.) Kodak E100VS film.

Location: Loxahatchee National Wildlife Refuge, Palm Beach County, Florida.

Some quality lost going from slide to print to (inexpensive scanner.) No PhotoShop changes.

Really nice background and detail. It seem a bit oversaturated but still very nice.

George, a nice pose. Wish for a little more room at the bottom for the feet.

Alan, you got your wish. :D When I scanned the 8x12 print about an inch, (maybe a bit less) stuck out of the scanner, hence the lack of "leg room" or more appropriately, "feet room". I usually scan a 4x6, but didn't have one. Thanks for taking the time to comment, I appreciate it. Geo.

I would love to see the slide, George. Don't think a scan of a print does this one justice. Great shot.
