From my walk today

Pages [1] 2
All images in Aperture Priority. Just for something to do.
My assessment, I found the images a tad overexposed, some adjustment had to made in photoshop.
The Double Crested, it was a hazy day, almost a gray day, anyhow, in Manual mode, I use that exact setting, so, for this shot, Aperture Priority nailed this one.
The flower, it was slightly overexposed
The Turkey, who cares   Big Grin

#1 Bumble Bee on Yellow Rose
#2 Double Crested Cormorant
#3 Turkey Vulture

The first is my favourite.  I wouldn't have known it was originally overexposed if you hadn't said so.  The composition is A+.  The bee is  in the perfect spot in the frame.  Good job.  The others are fine, I don't konw anything about birds or bird pictures.

Photo two is a cormorant, I think.

third photo is one of the most beautiful soaring birds. and the second ugliest bird up close.  (Turkey Vulture)

Great work, Mike.

Since you mentioned that #1 was a bit overexposed I looked a little closer and can tell where the petels were probably a little blown out.

I'm not a big fan of birds on a plain blue sky. But the composition on #3 makes it work. People usually don't balance the space on those shots very well.

Sarcasm, frustrating the clueless since 3000 b.c.

Specular highlights are o.k. so long as they are not overdone or take up majority of the image.
Details still remain in the pedals.

Thanks John

I love the cormorant picture the most, mainly because you showed me something new. I never get to see the feet of the cormorants around here!!!

Details still remain in the pedals.

Was there a picture of a bike that I missed? Ohhhhhhhhhh, you mean "petals."  ROFL

Plus, with vultures being my absolutely favorite bird in the entire world, you made my day with the third image! Whooo hooo!

I've seen this attemted on Marian before, but I still think she's right, unless you can find some way to disprove it.  Regardless, photography forums are hardly the place to be giving each other writing and/or grammar lessons, in my opinion.  Do like the rest of us do, find something photography related to fight about.  Smiley
