It was a reasonably successful portrait session, I think. With a little effort, I connected with the subject and build the necessary degree of rapport to proceed. My camera lacks ‘animal eye detect autofocus’, but I was able to improvise in the moment. It is worth noting that I have not been in such close proximity to a cockscomb in many years, if ever, especially an alive one, and I realized that if it came to it, I think I’d choose to feed the comb to the dog. Offal may be all the rage among foodies, but I’m afraid my ambitions peaked at the egg level.
