Hi all,
I started photographing birds 2 years ago, just after buying my first DSLR.
I have very little knowledge in digital photography. By joining BPN, I'd like to share my enthousiasm to capture australian birds and at the same time hope to improve my skill in post-processing digital files.
For my first contribution in this section, I like to show you a portrait of australian ibis. The picture has been made early in the afternoon (harsh light !), but I tried to add more relief and colours to this plain black&white bird by working with a back-light and using an advertising bord nearby as a background.
D2HS, 70-200 VR, 1/320", f/4, @170mm, ISO 200, RAW file converted to JPEG in Nikon Capture 4.4
Best Regards,
Thonnaksar
