thanks, It's actually in colour. I shot it at about 11 at night during the snow storm we were having with just some outside lights back lighting, so colours were strange enough as it was.

I just desaturated red and blue a little bit.

when I compare it to a black and white version, it actually looks more black and white then the B&W version ironically. So I ended up sticking with the colour version as it looked better.

Nice shot, Dave. I really like the low perspective.

Thanks Matt. Yes, that was from sitting in the car-blind combined with the effect of 700mm and a 1.6x crop factor and him being on a little one-foot snow pile.

BTW, congrats one winning the latest contest. Yours was one of my three votes and I would have voted for you if I'd only had one, though the competition was nice and close.

Dave

Car-blind, but I almost froze my hands off a few minutes later, chasing bald eagles with no gloves in 18-degree weather.

I love the seat warmers. I run the heat and seat warmers, but keep the windows down so that I can shoot quick while keeping the cameras cool. I've usually got on full winter weather gear so that I jump out of the car if need be.

Yeah, but some of us just can't take a horizon that's wonky. I'm surprised that some are just unaware of a crooked horizon while others can't even take 1-degree of tilt.

Was sick. Got bored. Clearly I lack proficiency with flash and product photography. Oh well. Practice, practice, practice...
