Hope you are not getting tired of this species...that's one of the only species that cooperated for me last time out! Quite photogenic, and they provide a seemingly infinite amount of material to work with I found the reddish Bg (provided by a tree of red berries) quite nice with the yellow berries of the perch.
Canon 7D + 100-400L @400mm, manual exposure, evaluative metering, 1/1600s., f/7.1, ISO 800, natural light, handheld, about 80% FF (original vertical composition), some of the fruits toned down via burn tool, and an OOF branch in LRC cloned out.
Nothing like it down-under Daniel so never get tired of seeing this attractive species! I love the strong vertical composition here with bird well caught feeding, excellent IQ and killer BG.
Another nice shot of this species. Techs look great and I really like the rusty colored BG. Complements the bird well and the berries pop against it nicely. Well done.
Another beauty, Daniel. Great pose, bg, perch. I love the comp as posted, but I could also imagine a tighter crop with a little cloning to eliminate the LRC berries.
Yet Another Bohemian Waxwing.
