Great clarity and what luck to find two so close together. Do you use a long lens or an extender?

I was going to submit "breasts" as a new contest topic, but I figured it would be wildly popular and get my butt kicked off the site! lol

Very funny! I like this shot allot. My only suggestion would be to do some dodging on the face of the tit on the left. It seems too dark to see any detail there and just a touch of light would do wonders. Otherwise, the colors and details as well as the depth of field are wonderful. The branch across the top adds nice framing as well.

The reason why the sunsets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

This is very pretty. You did a great job using the greenery as a frame.

Wonderful timing! The pair seem to have such alert captivated poses. I love the details, color and surroundings. I think the new buds add a nice compliment as well. Thank you for sharing them. Saved.

I'm picturing the eyebrows going up so fast on some of the mods' heads that they popped right off their heads when they saw the title. And after seeing the quality of the photo they still had difficulty in gluing those eyebrows back on. Ah, well... they'll just have to do as some stars in Hollywood do and paint on fake ones. Great image, Paul.

Everything in this photo works perfectly well together! Fantastic job of capturing 2 birds in 2 poses in one frame. The coloring of the tree greenery sets them off so well too. Into my favs this one went!

In Polish they are called "sikorka", but I am not sure at all - all the birds are the same to me - sparrows !!!! LOL
Congratulations, dear friend [btw we have been at a safe distance from each other long enough]. Do you remember the old times of 2005/2006/2007 etc ....? I thought we were rather friends then.LOL

Always nice to see a great pair of tits. Well balanced and lit, these are ample, well rounded samples of this species.
