Awesome set Doc, love the effect of the thin DOF on the SWKF where the head area was emphasized. If these were mine I would refrain from putting the watermark on the birds itself, it's a little distracting and lessens the beauty of the capture.

Thanks for the advise regarding watermark. I do put watermark on the bird itself on web posting only but not on print. The watermark on the body are for web grabber " thieves " who use others material for there own purpose with out permission and it's rampant in the cyber world now a days. Just to make their life little difficult. ha ha ha. anyway thanks a lot Rey.

Wonderful rendition on the cuckoo dove, Doc Boy! Excellent lighting, creamy background, nice clear perch and beautiful composition. This portrait would look perfect hanging on your wall.
