Canon 5D Mark III
Canon 24-105mm @ 93mm
5 frame HDR (Photomatix Pro)
AEB comp: -1 to +3 in 1 stop increment
First frame starting at:
1/1250 sec, f/8
Mode: Av
Metering: Evaluative
AEB comp: -1
Live view: active
ISO: 400
FEISOL CT-3441S tripod paired with the FEISOL CB-30C ballhead
Though I was here to shoot the eagles with the super-tele, I have always liked the tree the nest is in. Big problem is the ground as it detracts from the image. I framed it so I have adequate room top and sides (IMO) and let the bottom fall where it did - the idea being to crop up after. There were small portions of an adjacent pine intruding into the frame on the right that were removed. Next time I will move left to eliminate that in the field. After cropping the bottom line of ground trees out, I felt the image looked too top-heavy so left them in.
I used Photomatix Pro on a 5 frame bracketed image with the intent of it NOT looking like HDR; just getting more detail in the tree and branches.
