I shot this one among my first takes with my digital camera. I am

only beginning with photography (couple of months). What do you

think?

Very nice! The birds almost in line, with the big

one standing out are great. Also the light on the

cliff is very good! Wish it were a color shot, though.

I like the photo, but the large file is too big at 209K The shot almost looks better as a small file. I'd give the picture a B+. The only thing that may have improved it would be fill flash if possible, and more birds on the rocks. It's all a matter of waiting. I love that it's B&W. Good job keep shooting.

Your comments are very encouraging. I agree it is too big a file... I just did not realize that when I uploaded, sorry. I also agree it would have been great to have more birds... I did wait a while, but after 20 min or so, this was the crowdest I could get... I am not sure if fill flash would have worked, though, since the bird was pretty far (it was taken with a zoom and the bottom part of the picture was actually cropped, so it seems near, but it is not that near in reality). Thanks to both of you for taking the time!

i have dsl, and it's *not* too big a file. :-) i am quite impressed with the textures and overall clarity. the bird is a great touch. this image *transports* me, where so many i've seen do not.
