Hi Stephanie,
Excellent portrait of the Ostrich against a great BG. Immaculate sharpness. I like that intense and gaping look. Very nicely composed and framed. Kudos.

Your collection of bird portraits is pretty impressive, Steph - and this is no exception.
Great detail in his hairy wee had and good sharpness on the eye.
Original angle to the shot as well - congrats on a great capture!

I presume you were in spot metering mode here, GPO.
Apparently, the focus on the eye is spot on, but the beak and the halo of hair around the face are considerably blurred.
The opulence of your bird park is such a blessing. You can pick and choose at will.
Lucky you!
Regards.

Hi Stephanie,
impressing, very expressive character portrait, looking wild and lively through the tight framing and the well handled falloff in sharpness towards the beak and the back. Focus perfectly placed, exposure well handled. Well done!
Good notes, and another nice, well told joke. Thank you!
Best regards,
Peter

That's a tad up close and personal wouldn't you say?! It's a fun capture. Having the center so sharp with blur to either side seems to work. Thanks for sharing it and the laugh.

Hey,hey Steph! I knew this one! Lol...
What a nice close-up of a so funny looking bird. I like this DOF with focus just on its eye; this is a real nice portrait! Did you know that it wasn't true that they put their head in the sand when they are afraid? I really wonder where this legend comes from :-) Thanks,
Claudine

bonjour stephanie
excellent,cette autruche avait le bec collé a ta lentilles d'objectif!
un peu plus de profondeur aurait été souhaitable pour a voir le bon du bec bien net.

Dear Steph
I have decided to use my smiley’s and critique the postings of ostriches on the site. I am so intrigued by this interesting bird and it is always a pleasure for me to search information about and look at pictures of them.
By the way did you see the cute baby ostrich posting that Loot has posted and dedicated to all the females of Trek Nature?
Please do yourself a favour and visit Junior. It is just too adorable for words. I am sure you will love it.
I must just add that I am not a great critiquer but I admire a good photo and if it is accompanied by a good note or story it makes it more appreciated.
Because I am not a photographer myself I love to look at all the beautiful photos posted on Trek Nature and wish I have started photography years ago. Unfortunately I am too old now. I just admire the talented people who do not mind to share their photographic experiences and knowledge with uninformed people like myself.
As a pensioner I spent most of my day, browsing through Trek Nature. One actually does not need another site
Kind regards
Aaltjie
