    The Three Amigos

    This guy landed in front of Mongo today and just showed off for about 2 minutes ! Mongo photographed him every which way but ultimately found the images uninteresting. So, before trashing them, he thought of combining about 6 to 8 of the images in various poses as a composite but settled on 3 just for fun. A quick bird 3 Amigos or 3 guards that have front , left and right covered ! This was extremely easy as the exposures and area in which they were taken were very close together - so, very little adjustment was needed. The only real concern was the very shallow DOF to deal with and the slop he was on made it more interesting to deal with also.

    Fabulous Mongo.

    Great fun, and great expressions on the bird's face too!

    My sense of humour (feeble though it may be) is not confined to the CC forums!
