Another from my trip with Isaac. With senior year at university in full swing I have not had any time to shoot. Hopefully that will change this Thanksgiving break.

From a hot humid critter-filled night.

Techs:
Nikon D750
Nikkor 600mm f4AF-S I
Nikon SB-910 flash (TTL +0.3)
SS 1/250
f8
ISO 800

Beautiful shot Walker! Lovely pose and nice eye contact!

I probably would have burnt the tree somewhat to separate it from the bird. The yellows look a bit blown on the eyes but I know it's a result of the lighting used. A keeper regardless!

Photo is sick. No one has a shot like this. This is not a sit on your couch at home type of shot. I am just glad I was able to be there. The details look really good but the whites are a bit hot as are the yellows. Must be because of the monitor you are using as I know the light was dim . because I was holding it! Email me the RAW and I can fix for you if you would like.

I love the eyes. Beautifully executed.

I see that While are a bit bright and can be tamed a little.

Thanks for sharing.

Wicked but the contrast needs to be reduced ...
