Brilliant GB, what Megapixel is your camera? they are really clear shots!!!!!
Is it me or do those birds look like animated birds?
Cheers - 10mp, its an ~8yr old Nikon D80 thats about due for replacement!
To be honest some of the 20mp+ stuff around now is mostly just so the marketing people can quote a big number, unless you're printing poster size or bigger there isn't much point.
Looks like you had a hard weekend @Pengy :PQuote:
