1D MKIII, 70-200L f/2.8 IS w/Canon 1.4X TCII @ 260mm, ISO 100, 1/200 @ f/8
This was shot at the beginning of the trail to Upheaval Dome and, unfortunately, I'm sure this bird has been fed by passersby in the past. Most Ravens are a bit more shy than this one.
Great find and good eye contact. The light looks a bit harsh and I wish for a lower angle. The branch sticking out of the head is a bit distracting.
You did well in very harsh light. And yes, there are a few tiny branches too many sticking out...
I like the pose and your framing. The light was harsh, but you handled it well. The branch I find distracting is the tiny one at the bird's shoulder.
I like it! The light is harsh what that's what you had and you managed it very well, the catch light looks unreal to me, mybe you should relocate it. Still, very nice, congratulaitons!
Okay, different frame, juniper tree trimmed out from behind head and beak, beard and fine head feathers replaced. I am doing my "Artie" mods here. I do like Ravens.
