Hunt for the Henslow's Sparrow

[Dan Brown]

Nice new forum! I hope this montage is not "out of this box".

The images in this montage are from a recent trip to Northern Ohio (Adamsville area) in search of my 687th ABA area life bird, the Henslow's Sparrow. We found 5 or 6 of the sparrows on the hillside in the BG image (which is a 2 image photomerge cropped a little). The 2 cameos were shot with an 80-400mmVR Nikor at 400, 1/200sec at f16 with fill flash -2.0.

Congrats on finding a life bird Dan.

Probably more OOTB but I will let those forum moderators, who I am sure will be over this way today, decide on a move.

HI Dan It is a tough call since it is a composite but it is showcasing a location ............... probably will never happen again but the staff stayed up all night and decided to call this image a "hybrid" Stays right here !!!! Great imagination !!!!

[Dan Brown]

Great. So no rule changes here? Dan

[Alfred Forns]

No Dan .... as I said this is a one time unique due to the image being a try hybrid :D
