Reflection

[Geir Jensen]

When I'm out photographing birds, I see other things. As this reflection. Data: EOS 1D MK III, 500mmL F4, 0 + 1.4 Converter, 1 / 125, F8, 0, ISO 400 Date 6/11-2011

Hi Geir. I love the light, the subtle colors, the sharpness within your DOF, and the perfect reflection! For my tastes, this cool image would be stronger with a little more room top and bottom and more DOF such that the elements on the left and right sides of the frame were sharper. A move to your right (if possible) in the field would have gotten your subject more parallel to the sensor, though that may have given you a different lighting effect. :S3:

Very cool abstract reflection comp, Geir, nice light and colors. Steve makes good suggestions. To me it looks kind of like a crocodile. :S3:

Hi Geir, Steve covered my thoughts exactly so I wont repeat what he said. My first thought when I opened this was that is was an alligator!

Increasing the ISO and going to F16 might have given enough DOF and a fast enough SS to get most of this nice and sharp. :S3:
