    Baby Virginia Rail, just for fun

    The mediocre image quality, poor foreground/background, and bad downward angle are all garbage, but I had to share because it is so darn cute. Hope you enjoy...

    Cutie it certainly is. Glad you kept it as is and not tried to do the fancy pp that many nature photographers are jumping into.

    Great, Matt. Cute, yes, and much else to recommend it despite your disclaimers. Sharp, nice wetness, great color, well-framed, etc.

    I don't have any problem with the angle. It certainly is a real funny one. And I bet there aren't too many other photos like it out there! IQ is not bad either.

    Matt, I agree with Mark, a very good technical result for the circumstances.

    Wish mine came out that well.
