Top stuff Don - very nice indeed.

The lake shot is my favourite - lovely work.

The first might benefit from a lift in brightness. A smaller aperture may have got you more detail further out, with a greater depth of field?

I've used the first photo for a quick edit, to come up with one that combines (most of) the processing of the second, with (some of) the shadow detail of the first:

Happy to delete!

YMMV of course.

The last one zoomed in is likely to be the longer lens - the second is likely to be the wider of the two.

In that second photo, the head peeking over the barrier would be a good candidate for a clone out.

They're all sharp and show the lighting up well.

It certainly is - I'm hoping to have a cunning plan on how to show it in a picture too!

Love all three, the colors and textures in the first are lovely. The second image has a lovely subtle light to the buildings, which are very elegant. And the third has a grand remoteness and solitude to it, a lovely set.
+1

That's an interesting set David, in terms of what they might signify - are these some of the 'boundary markers' of the world of Mr D. Trout Esq.?

well here in italy all animals are scared by humans, and i think they have all the reason of this world!
My best animal shots were taken outside italy, in countries where animals are more confidential with humans that like to be near it!
You're not alone there Manuel - these things are difficult to get near, here as well.

Each friday, this friday too of course, i usually go to a natural reserve where i can shot herons or other animal only into in a mimetic house (there's a specific name in eng for it?)
You are probably referring to what I would call a 'hide' - that is, a structure designed to accomodate shooters (of all sorts) without scaring the birds & animals away. Often they blend in with the natural environment, by use of camouflage.

Nos 2 through 4 appear to be some form of honeyeater?

No 11 is identical to the spotted turtledoves we have in most coastal cities around Oz - a feral pest here. Streptopelia chinensis.

I'd be the first to say I'd prefer to take a photo of a chicken before an egg.
