    Default Australian White Ibis (Threskiornis moluccus)

    Hi all, Took this yesterday at Western Treatment Plant in Victoria Australia. Drove right up and took the shot with only a small crop of about 5%. Sharpened resized file.
    5D mk iii, 500mm mk ii, f/10, iso 400, 1/500 used the car window to keep gear stable.

    Hi Merv, You did well considering the harsh, bright sunlight. I love the BKGR. I think that pulling the curve down a bit on the whole thing would work well as long as you don't darken that nice blue water too much.

    Awesome subject, love the perfect parallel view of the long curved bill. Excellent water BG with an appealing hue of blue. Harsh light as mentioned by Artie.
