Don't think I would change it. I like bird pictures, a lot. I have tons when the light was not good. There are many ways to clean up high ISO but you may times lose the things that made it good and appealing in favor of technical.

eBay policies

My experience as an occasional seller of photo gear that I no longer want is that no matter what you say in your listing, ebay requires you to accept returns (and pay the return shipping). The buyer just clicks a return button on his ebay screen and you get an email from ebay saying authorize the return postage or ebay will authorize it and charge your paypal account.

I purchased a car cover for my wife's Miata. Got a shipping conformation but no tracking number. It never arrived. Went back and forth with seller and ebay. Ebay said they would open a case. After a couple of weeks they said I would get a refund. It never showed up either. Contacted them a few more times but never did the refund.
Never did business with ebay again.

I live in Charleston WV where he grew up. There is an annual regatta and one year he was in town during the regatta. He flew a plane under the bridge. They still talk about it.

Very pretty, Rick.

Thank you. I like flowers as much as birds which are kind of like flying flowers.
