Re: Here's the turkey

[Bill Owens]

Thanks for the kind comments, Frank.  However in all honesty the *istD was 
set on auto, so everything is just as the camera decided it should be.  I 
took about 6 exposures in the 10 seconds or so while he left the feeding 
area and went across the road.

BTW, these were taken about where PDML central was parked at last year's NPW

Terrific shot, Bill!
NIce dof, the Turkey's sharp enough against the OOF background.  You
got him mid-stride (just about perfect).  I like that he's crossing a
road - you know, "why did the turkey cross the road?" and all.  And,
to top it all of, he just has this dumb turkey expression on his face.
I think it's the way his head is cocked or something.  Wonderful
stuff!
cheers,
frank
I really like this
