Canon 1Dx
600mm and 2x extender
ISO 800 F9.0 SS 1/2500
This was the only flight shot I managed of the whimbrels. The birds were really getting comfortable with me as I crawled my way towards them until a !@#$%%$# ATV drove through the field behind them.
Still happy with this one because I was handholding with my elbows on the ground supporting the lens.
PP Crop to ~70%, raised exposure by half a stop, levels, NR to BG, DE to bird at 2% and USM to JPEG.I enhanced the existing eye highlight by doubling its size.
Comments and critiques always appreciated and learned from with thanks,
Gail
