Thanks for the comments Kathi, UEG and David Culpepper, I know papa bear will appreciate them. I must say my favorite is the lappet-faced vulture...

Dave,

I reckon they're all great, but like you, the lappet faced is my favourite.

I reckon with a bit of photoshop you could also remove the couple of blades of grass as well.

I'm a bit busy right now, but if I get a chance and with your permission, I'll have a go at it for fun to see how it turns out. - If it does, I'l send the altered version to you. Wink

Thanks Steve, that would be good. It will be interesting to see the result. Photoshop is Chinese to me.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

Wow! He saw some amazing stuff. Great pictures. A couple could benefit from photoshop (or other softwared) but they are wonderful pictures.

Dave,

Hre's the pic after about 20 minutes photoshopping..... it's not particularly good at the moment and I could improve it a lot more if I had a couple of hours more to spend on it......... but it's a start and al least you get an idea of what's possible! Wink

Great looking animals! love them birds. As Steve said with a little Photoshop work they can be improved.
Spend about 5 minutes on the vulture.... see if this works

Hi David,

Yup, as you say, I lost the photoshop round...... but of course, it now means I know who to send my images to when they need some quality photoshop work huh. rotflmo

Darkside just might hae made a rod for his own back by showing his talents! Smiler

I'll look forward to hearing from you on the other thing!
