Greater Roadruner

[Alan Murphy]

Greater Roadrunner

Workshop: Laguna Seca Ranch, South Texas

D3, 600, ISO 1000, f4, 1/800. Called in.

This was taken under dark skies. I like that he has both feet in the air.

[Melissa Groo]

Wow, what a fantastic capture, Alan. Roadrunner on the go! Having both feet up in the air is the icing on the cake here. Excellent detail, IQ and comp. Might lighten the dark blob in the BG just a little.

[Jim Crosswell]

Great image Alan! I like the running pose, sharpness, details, raised crest and composition.

[dankearl]

Just superb as usual.
A lifer bird for me, probably not for those in the southwest, but I have never seen one.
Great sense of motion, exactly what I think when I think of Roadrunners.

[Cheryl Arena Molennor]

LOL super low angle and running pose. Where's the coyote? Love it.

[Karl Egressy]

Great running pose, excellent details, Alan. It is gret to see that both legs are in the air.

Alan, what a pose. And to get the bird running like that with that angle to the camera...perfect. liked it a lot.

[Frank Schauf]

Wow, perfect comp and bg, nice work!

[Sidharth Kodikal]

I love how you've captured him mid-stride in the air. Nice sense of motion, perfect bird angle and bg.
