I was able to capture a picture of our Dove as she was starting to fly away as our daughter was reaching for her. Too bad our daughters eyes are closed.

Very good action shot and exposure of the bird, but the scene makes it look too much like a snapshot. On a studio like background (and maybe with the babies eyes open) this could have been a winner!
I agree 100% with all of this! I guess I need to find cheap ways of creating a "studio".
A fairly inexpensive solution that would have worked in this case is a large piece of fabric draped over the couch and onto the floor. I use black moleskin polyester and it is TERRIFIC for absorbing all of the extra light. After a little bit of burning in PS, you can't see the fabric at all. All of the photos on black in my portfolio are on this fabric. :-)

I agree 100% with all of this! This was my very first attempt at an challenge. I guess I need to find cheap ways of creating a "studio". I was disappointed about her eyes being closed, but I couldn't get another shot with the birds wings open, so I just went with this one!
