Black Bellied Plover

[James Galletto]

Here's another one from Jamaica Bay.

Shutter speed: 1/1250 sec
Aperture: 10
ISO: 500
Lens: EF500mm f/4L IS USM +2.0x

Very nice light and BG. I think it looks a bit soft for 1/1250.
Maybe downsizing or the photo just needs a bit more sharpening.
Why f10?

James:

Good critique from Dan, and I agree that the body and head look a little soft. Well exposed, nice shooting angle, like the colors and the small splash in front.

Cheers

Lovely colours, composition, and low angle.

It does look like it was a little soft to me, and I also think that you could brighten the blacks a little as they look very dark.
