Audubon's Oriole

Workshop: Laguna Seca Ranch, South Texas

D3, 600, ISO 800, f9, 1/800

One of my favorite Rio-Grande valley birds. From my last workshop.

Well this looks familiar. :) Thanks for all your help in the workshop. It was a great time and a great learning experience. I'll get some of my images up in the next couple of days. (Having seen this one, I need to check to see if any of mine come close to this high standard.)

Lovely bird, perch, eye contact and bg.
Appears a bit bright on my monitor.

Excellent shot Alan! I love the perch, pose and HA. I agree with Sid that the chest yellows appear a tad hot

OMG!!! Looks perfect on my monitor!!!

Gorgeous shot, composition and detail excellent, but I too find the yellows on the flank a little hot.

Brilliant job Alan. Perfect background and wonderful perch.

Beautiful pose, colours and a super background. Great image

Looks stunning to me. Beautiful colours here and a background to die for! Great exposure as well.

Very well done!

One of those conundrums, do you desaturate the real color? I usually prefer not too and don't mind the bright yellow a bit.

Great pose perch and detail.
