CommentA resubmission to replace an earlier post, with improved processing. I was never happy with the 20D sensor's rendition of the greens in the foliage, and this version has more accurate overall colour rendition and better greens. These two birds are perched in a Tasmanian endemic King Billy Pine, a 'living fossil' species which traces its origins back to Gondwanaland times. The synchronised poses caught my eye.
EquipmentCanon 20D
