Another attempt to get this guy on dark background. Same shooting conditions mentioned in my previous post.
http://www.birdphotographers.net/for...sting-material.
Canon 7D 500mm F4
ISO 320 1/1600 F6.3
Post processing: S/H adjustment, cloned out bright spots and shadow on the wing.
Here is the original incase anyone is interested.
Sid, nice work on the wing. Though I am a fan of pure black backgrounds combined with sunlight, I actually like the original capture better. The hint of background in the UL and LR corners of that image help to anchor things for me. Don't get me wrong; the presented version works fine as well, but I think the original is especially nice.
Cheers,
Greg Basco
I agree with you on that. Looking both images side-by-side I like the original as it is. Thanks for critic.Quote:

Yep. That twig went very well with wing position. ThanksQuote:

Sid,
Both images, today and yesterday, were dramatic and beautiful shots. I think I like this one a little better. Sometimes it's easy to start taking shots like this for granted but I know a lot of work goes into such an amazing capture. Keep em coming!

The bird looks fantastic against that bg well done Sid.
Im going for your OP BG. Good flight pose, and the blue's of the heron stand out very well against the darker BG.
