Yeah, this is different for you but nevertheless not lacking in your skills. The detail is exquisite and the exposure with little DOF is masterful. Great composition too although I will acknowledge that the pose is down to him.

Marcus,
The look great even when not flying! Beautiful feather detail once again. I'm not sure if we have any Quail here in Ontario. Not that colour, that's for sure.

He has such a relaxed look in his eye, just taking in the moment. Beautifully captured Marcus, Love the close-up details in the feathers..and I see that he has a feather in his cap too, hahaha...Perfect against that background, a lovely composition, as always another impeccable shot...very well done....Linda
