A nice supprise today

Today wasn't good lighting so consider that when looking.. The pigs are wild and I was lucky to see them. They were quite a distance away so this is a major corp..

Nice shooting. The gulls and GBH are wonderful. The stork and kittybird were tough shots, esp. with AE ?? Had to look up your Florida pigs. Sounds like you have plenty of those and could have a smoke house going most of the time.

Thanks.. The stork was a challenge with the lighting and background as it was.. I shoot all with Aperture P and in camera setting at sunny. This is what I was told to use by Ronnie http://www.pbase.com/ronnie_14187/image/108697413 who is the best at nature Photography I've ever run across. He told me that processing is the key factor in the quality of nature photograph. He only take photos in early morning light to get the golden effect. All his pictures are taken in the same settings but then he has some real quality lens. I ask him to send me a raw file of one of this shots unedited so I could try to process and make the picture looks as good as his but he never answered my email so I guess that was a no. I'm sure he has a secret that he don't want to share but most times he's willing to help. Thanks for the comments. I like getting constructive views so to better process or capture my photos.
