1D3 + 500/4 + 1.4x + 1.4x, 1/1000sec, f8, ISO 400, Av + 1EV; monopod
I was oh so happy when this guy showed up in my viewfinder as I was gathering some images of her. She seemed to like what she saw too ;) as this is just prior to my previous post of this pair :D
Of course I am disappointed by the clipped wing, though had it been possible to include it the composition might have suffered; I also had to lighten his left side (viewer's right) substantially since it was strongly shaded, in particular there is no catchlight and the eye is a bit dark due to the lighting angle (no chance to change that at Green Cay).
