Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent. Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature. Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

......using my new Bushhawk Shoulder Brace and processing in Lightroom 1.1. The shoulder brace does work well, but I would say it is a bit overpriced for what it is. Using the D2Xs and the Bigma out to 500 it was a lot more steady than just hand holding, but I am yet to try it with birds in flight. I am going to attach a quick release base clamp to the unit so I can adjust the camera back and forth, with long lens plates on the lenses'. The Shoulder Brace is made of moldered plastic, and to me a bit on the light side and will not stand a lot of rough work but great for a back pack which is their market. It makes holding a very long Len's much better.
Processing in Lightroom was quick and easy, and I need to use it a bit more before I decide which is better NX, LIGHTROOM or PSCS2 or a combination as I have been using Not the best background for these birds but it was raining a little so it was all I had Shot at 80th @ 6.3 so not a lot of DOF 
Shot at 60th @ 6.3 so not a lot of DOF  Cheers ....bp....

Lovely work Bernie. Bird is sharp and well defined and I like the shallow DOF (even the grey background that results). I find the face a little better defined in #1, but both are good captures.
