stuny Posted March 26, 2009 Share #6 Posted March 26, 2009 Doug - I almost expected a product shot of spirits. Instead I got a superb classic portrait of a colorful subject. I understand why your ID info is on the photo, but it is distracting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
albert Posted March 26, 2009 Share #7 Posted March 26, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Doug, Excellent as usual. I have been seeing large flocks of these creatures in my recent travels to Oklahoma and Texas. Sometimes, one gobbler for as many as thirty hens.

wildlightphoto Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share #10 Posted March 28, 2009 Thanks all for your comments! I've learned that the most reliable way to get the tom (male) turkey to face the camera is to have a hen turkey between the camera and the tom! Unfortunately the hens are usually more difficult to approach than the toms, but the trick worked this time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
