Scratching an Itch

[Roman Kurywczak]

Taken at Flamingo Gardens in Davie Florida last year on an extremely overcast afternoon. Digital Rebel with the Sigma 300-800 mm lens at 572mm. Iso 200 at f5.6 and 1/200 sec. with flash at 0 all mounted on a tripod w Wimberly head. With my Mark 3 i would have upped the ISO for a little more DOF and speed......but I didn't have it at the time. Addeed a little canvas to left........for Artie!
As always comments welcomed and appreciated.

Hi Roman I like the pose a lot a little twist to the head would have been great. Might consider increasing the black and neutral in selective color for some punch. Glad you decided to add the canvas !!! Looks very good !!!

This is a pretty cool image Roman! you caught the moment just right!

Cool pose Roman and the image looks sharp!

Light angle is the main negative is the overly contrasty light, good job on the exposure.

I like the pose and the "flying" feathers from the scratch. Gives it a feeling of motion. I also like the soft detail in the whites.
