So...I see all those amazing shots Steve posts and figure I'll never attain to that......plus so many members here also capture amazing shots. I often think I'm not so gifted as many of you, but of my many images these few months, this one I really like. I've not yet learned to use photoshop very well, mostly just open my images into Cannon DPP4, crop, adjust contrast, brightness, color intensity, luminosity sometimes, and sharpness. Recently purchased Topaz Denoise and sharpen and learned how to "send to photoshop" to add those products as layers...but I digress...this image is just me and my camera, and modest adjustments in DPP4. Was a very overcast flat light morning, moderate wind (had to time pictures...bird feathers flying everywhere)....Canon R5, RF600 F4, 1,.4 TC, Tripod mounted, F5.6, 1/320 sec, oh and Canon freaky amazing bird eye focus. I think my latte and donuts helped as well. Hope you like it....I let the feet cutoff because I felt it made you look at the bird eyes and focus more on the bird and less on the environment (bird was standing on a post in the middle of a not so scenic canal in foggy overcast weather with wind blowing).
