Well, since I was supposed to be shooting with Robert at Gatorland this is the best substitute could come up with is shooting some birds in a rare AZ snow storm. Don't book a flight with Spirit Airlines, EVER.
I know some will say the background is too cluttered but I like some clutter. I also tried a reverse vignette to lighten the area around the bird to reduce the harshness of the twigs behind him. Curious what you guys think about it and know I will get an honest answer.
5D Mark III, 700 mm with 25 mm ext tube (500 F4 w 1.4 x).
5.6 at 1/320, on tripod, ISO 1000.
It was a good day but not what I had looked forward to for a couple months.
Comments always appreciated
