Happy Holidays Chuck!
Wish we had the snow today that we had on the island last Saturday when you were here, it sure was pretty even if the light didn't cooperate.
A beautiful Chukar, love the comp you used!

Excellent. Another shot to make me jealous.

I really like the frosted grass in front of the bird in this situation. There's even light in the eye in the conditions we had when you took this - surprised me even with the snow. I like the puff-ball pose too. Nicely done.

Very nice. The frosty setting is great and I like the puffed look.

The snow obviously makes the colors in this one really pop Charles! I also like the head turn and angle in this one. Nice job!

Nice image, Charles! I love all the frost around him! Really nice pose. It looks like you have some great detail in the feathers, too! Nice to have a little bit of a catchlight in the eye.
