Have not posted any images in a while so here is one from the summer that I just got around to processing shot rather late in the morning with the light just starting to get too harsh for my taste.
40D, 500 f/4 + 1.4 TC, 1/2500 at 7.1, Aperture Priority, Evaluative Metered at + 1/3, ISO 400, RAW, Tripod, cropped
Beautiful in every way. Great color combo, low angle and the head angle. Drop a huge plus. Terrific connection with the eye. did i say beautiful? WOW...TFS
Great low angle. I really like that you've captured the bird looking right at you. The pinks in the bird look great, lots of nice details through out.
Hey Don,
Yeah....getting close to harsh on these guys but you handled it nicely and your angle was great! Nice timing with the water drop as that adds to it for me....you may try toning this down a bit more.....because the whites look like they are all there so bringing out any more detail in the neck area will only help. Easy tweak to a very nice image!!!
Agree with the above comments! Beautiful. It may need a little CW.
Thanks for the comment Roman the whites as posted are reading in the 223-229 range when i tone them down even more they start to turn grey here is the repost i came up with let me know what you think.Quote:

Hehehehe.....see what happens when I stare at a computer screen all day! I'm looking on my other monitor....and they look good! Sorry!!! Not sure but perhaps a touch better in the pinks? Will revisit this tomorrow!
Don, nice capture. I love the HA and the drops from the beak. I like the re-post better.
Lovely image. Great pose and eye contact!
Awesome Spoonbill Don. Great shooting angle, eye contact and exposure. Fantastic job.
I think even the repost still needs a touch more CW. :) I love the soft pinks and the eye contact. A wonderful image! :)
