Ok I'm going outside popular vote. I had a barred rock roo that had the blackwash on his legs and large headspot. He is all roo started to crow at 6 weeks. I hope I am wrong, but the first one looked like my roo at that age. 2nd one pullet

Thanks for the kudos!

Oh, so do you photo those hamburgers and stuff that have been staged? Like the whopper that looks impeccable in the ads - far from what you really get

No, haven't done fast food. I do know a few tricks of the trade, though. As an example, that hamburger you see on the menu board was not made by their company. If you see a Whopper sandwich in an ad, it was not made at a Burger King restaurant. It was most likely made at a professional kitchen and "staged" by highly-paid chefs like the ones you see on Food Network. It then is photographer by a guy like me within 2 minutes of it being completed. Spray-on gel is often applied to meats to make them shiny, and talcum powder added to bread to make it look soft. You wouldn't want to eat that burger in the ad...trust me!
