I can't decide which I like better but they're both really nice shots. Every time I think I've decided "I like this one better" I change my mind. I really love nature photography that defies the usual conventions. The last time I saw the British Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition in person, one of my favorites was a shot of a mass of parrots with a great deal of motion blur. It was one of the most memorable photos in an outstanding collection (and it was taken with a PZ-1p). But what is it with the sudden trend towards Theriaultean Wildlife Photography? I guess I'll have to add my contribution: http://www.robertstech.com/peso.htm (Also Canada Geese) -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
