MAD (macaw at dusk)

[Morado]

Ran into this macaw right before it flew off. It was at the very end of the day, with the very last bit of daylight. It was all very quick, so there was no chance to find a nice spot with a nice background. Not sure what else to do given the high ISO (16,000)

Thank you all. Still wish the background was more interesting or at least farther away.

These days taking and processing pictures is difficult due to color and contrast perception issues, among other cognitive challenges.

Personally, I think the semi blurred palm leaves make the pic appear more exotic so I'm ok with it, especially since it's on the move. It's hard to get a good, portrait style pic unless the bird is still with plenty of time to adjust for the best bg. Nice image.
