Canon 1dMarkIII, 600mm (300 f/2.8 + 2xTC), Manual Exposure: Ambient using L358. ISO 400, f/8, 1/1600th (sunny 16) handheld, IS mode 1. Processing via Lightroom with convert to web via PS CS3. A "grab capture" 1 month ago at Huntington Central Park rather late in the morning at 10:43AM.
The composition presented results from a crop on the top and left to uncenter the subject, trimming what is a continuation of the background presented. I am sure there is also a vertical composition within the capture as well, although it would make the Phoebe much tighter in the frame. There also is no additional canvas on the bottom, although it would be easy to add. The dark background element is a tree with shrub near the bottom and I happen to like it's inclusion as I find perfectly smooth backgrounds a bit boring.
Thanks for looking and comments appreciated.

ps: I appreciate the embedded IE spell check feature!
