Sony A-700 /Sony 70-400G/ Sony HVL-F56AM
1/1250 sec~F5.6~ISO500 Manual Exposure 7:30PM 6-5-09 Surfside, Texas.
In my never ending pursuit to create the perfect black skimmer feeding shot I came up with this duo; one with wings up, other down. I'm not sure which wing position is better.
Compositionally, two equal focal points is usually not a good idea; since the viewer gets caught up going back and forth, over and over. However there are geometric relationships that seem to tie the two together.
The right wing of the right bird is slightly out of focus. Oh well.
It is also unlikely the flash had much effect at the shutter speed.
So the question is which is better, actually which do you like better. Up or down?
Sure, any critique appreciated. Hit me with your best shot.
