Or is it that Leica extender? :-) Seriously, wonderful detail and tonality, and the composition isn't half-bad either. B.

Getting detail in both the white feathers and the black areas has proven difficult in bright light so I took advantage of the diffused light of a foggy day for this photo. Exposure was about 1/60 sec @ f/4. This is a crop of about 50% of the slide area. All comments welcome.
