Beautiful blur to start the new thread Nanny! At least you have lots of other lovely Towhee shots. I've never seen one myself.

Lily, cool courtship shot. Too bad the light wasn't in your favor. I think that was my problem too.

I have darkened this shot, reduced the highlight (whatever that is) and still this yellow flag iris just glows. The Orchard Oriole looks OK, but the glare from the flower is blinding. I had really hoped this shot would turn out. Anybody know a simple way to reduce flower glare while taking the photo?
