One More Snow Bunting.

[Daniel Cadieux]

Here's a nice and simple image design. From a few weeks ago, but freshly processed this evening. It may be my favorite of the series:S3:

Canon 7D + 100-400L @400mm, manual exposure, evaluative metering, 1/500s., f/6.3, ISO 800 (histogram checked), natural light, handheld, minor bill clean-up via patch tool, and darkened the perch via burn tool. Slight crop to and left to help the composition.

You saved the best for last.The perch looks really nice in this one and the bird is terrific.

[Tom Rambaut]

Like it all - the coy look back and the colors/feather patterns of the bird are very interesting. The perch looks natural and unobtrusive and I like the black lines in the stone as the compliment the black markings in the bird. The visibility of the toes.

[Cheryl Arena Molennor]

An all over nice soft kind of pastel color pallete and a pretty bird. never seen one

[John Cooper]

Yes Daniel you have managed to take this one up a further notch - A lovely clean image.

[Frank Schauf]

Excellent shot with very nice soft background.

[gail bisson]

Love the perfect HA and the perch.
Excellent POV

[Lorant Voros]

I think you are right about this being the best of the series. Perch is really special here that matches the color of the bird. Nice pose and head angle too. Very good one, Daniel.

[Bill Dix]

I see why you like this one. Lovely in every way. How did you get him to pose to match the striations in the perch?

[Jon Rista]

Beautiful shot! You always bring out the best of the 7D/100-400 combo...your skill with them is amazing. I really LOVE the perch in this shot. Sometimes a rock just does branch never can. ;)

[Rod Warnock]

So very delicate throughout and done with perfection, Daniel !!
Best regards

[PhilCook]

Perfect in all aspects Daniel, composition , light and perch all delivering a very pleasing image

[Karl Egressy]

Different perch this time. The pose is excellent and I like the perch. I liked all the pictures of the series, so it is hard to tell, Daniel.

[Robert Holguin]

Beautiful shot.
Love the pose, excellent comp, and details.
Very well done.

[Jeff Waugh]

Goregous feather detail, love the "earthy" details in the perch, and like how the brownish hue in the right corner anchors the image. I have been trying for these for some time...one of these days! Well done, and stunning image!
