I went to the Delaware State Fair (USA) this week, and a group had these fellows out for a show. I sort of like how this one came out.

This is the original full frame, sized down of course.

Camera is the Minolta Dimage 7, 200mm optical zoom plus X2 digi zoom (digi zoom in this camera is a simple frame crop), quality is super fine (tiff).

I was trying to get a good, sharp image of just the eye or eyes (yes I was thinking of the Survivor? song from the 80s), but no luck. They will be back at another fair Im going to, in a few weeks, Ill try again.
