I think maybe I would move the feet forward a bit to put them under the centre of balance. The necks might look better if they were slightly thinner just below the head.<BR/><BR/>Wildlife isn't my best subject though!Keith Tilleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04114006831583939493noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27887388.post-90362894447579345182009-03-06T21:03:00.000+01:002009-03-06T21:03:00.000+01:00Thanks Adam, Yes a little over underexposed, the S...Thanks Adam, <BR/><BR/>Yes a little over underexposed, the Sun went down.
