Sandhill Crane Baking in the Freezing Cold
This is an extreme focal length shot of a Sandhill Crane taken at the Bosque on New Year's Day. The temperature was in the mid-teens when this image was captured at around lunchtime. Even though the temperature was well below freezing, there was a tremendous amount of heat shimmer. Because I had 1200mm of glass, the thermal effect is much more pronounced. Other than a slight saturation boost, this is straight out of the camera. I thought the image looked kind of cool so I thought I'd post it in OOTB. What do you all think of it?
