I've enjoyed all your holiday shots as I hope you enjoy your holiday.

WHAT WAS THE BEST THING BEFORE SLICED BREAD?

…the idea of slicing it?

I've enjoyed all your holiday shots

I shot a lot more but you know… on holiyday!

I hope you enjoy your holiday.

I think there are two things that were great about
these three (not over yet!) weeks: the morning cof-
fees with my daughter and the daily look in the news-
papers to see what events I could shoot… for fun!

Thanks Mike!

I know, this bird is not even a typical Egyptian goose…
nevertheless, I am convinced that it's more beautiful.

In a rather shy sunbeam through the canopy…

… a fairy tale shot, possibly?

This final day did not hold any surprise so far. The
whole morning, my two sons and I were in the stu-
dio to put some order in the mess the boys left me.

They did good work in that time, though I was left
with the PP while they were going out with friends.
I don't complain saying this as I gives me a front row
seat to see the quality of their work… rather happy!

Now, for my last afternoon I intend to spend at the
marsh… while they go on with putting the studio the
way it was, cleaning the gear etc.

… it's raining!

The boys did a great job in the studio this afternoon
and, after nice dinner, I committed these conversions
and will post them as they come…

Since this thread was covering my holiday — and it is
now over — I will not post anymore here though I will
reply to all C&C.

Thanks all for the interest.

The one bit of crit I'd offer is that the highlights seem blown on some (not all) of the white birds, but otherwise a lovely set to finish.

Hope you feel refreshed from the break.

the highlights seem blown on some

Yes, indeed. Very difficult in such DR to get it!
