Canon 60D
f/10
1/640 sec
ISO 640
EC +.7
400 mm
I saw a small flock of Sandhills standing in a field last August. They let me gradually get rather close. I added canvas to the top and cropped off a third of the image from the bottom. And used Topaz detail filter on the feathers since the image was not very sharp. Was that due to not fast enough shutter?? I didn't want to push the ISO higher or the aperture more shallow. Is there another way? I did not have nor could I have used a tripod in the major road ditch I had to work in/through.
What do you think? Is there a way to make it less "boring" since it is mostly brown? Or is its problem more that the birds are not sharp enough?
Thanks!
