Excellent job getting the exposure of the Martin right to show the plumage detail well without looking overdone.  That's not an easy task.  Well done.

Nice job on the exposure in the larger version.  I have had little luck getting close to these guys and none at all on flight shots.  Thanks for posting, Dave
