Very nice, I like the depth of field work on your wife's bird picture!
She shot this with a 70-200mm 2.8 with a 1.7 Converter. *This was a
hand held shot and even with the telephoto with converter, it was
fairly sharp. * That is the beauty of the VR feature. *The fast lens
does a great job on the DOF and really makes a nice bokeh.
My wife and I see the world so completely different. *When I took the
horse photos, I was amazed at the strength and beauty of the animals.
She is actually scared of horses, but what she saw was the sadness of
them being in their stalls.
Here is her photo submission of her horse photo. *The photographer of
each photo is not revealed till after the competition, so no one knows
who took the photos. * This was her digital submission, and when they
flashed the image on the screen, it touched a number of woman behind
us. Based upon those women's reaction, I thought this would have
gotten a ribbon.

It is amazing how different my wife's photos are. *She is much more
creative than I am, and when we come back from taking photos, it is
amazing how different our photos look.
Harry's keen eye picked up on your pedestrian work. Maybe he'll give you
some tips some time so that you can take fine snapshots like he does.
The only photo Harry ever posted online that I really liked was an owl
photo taken in a Florida State Park.
I was really impressed by the sharpness, composition and exposure. *It
looked like it was taken with a 500-600 mm pro lens. * I was surprised
when I found the exact same photo in a professional wildlife
photographer's *blog. *I am not sure, but either the photographer stole
Harry's image or Harry stole his image. *I know if I was Harry and a pro
stole my image I would have raised hell.- Hide quoted text -

I liked the picture of stumpy. Not the dead tree, but the stump little
finger in the picture of a postcard.. pfffft.
