Wire tailed Swallows

[vishaljadhav]

Hi all
Posting image after some time now have been a bit inactive, also was trying to get my hand on video so made one and posted in the video section
the birds a wire tailed swallows, normally the nests are very small and with 3 chicks who outgrow the nest fast , its a normal observation that the chicks stay in the area for some days and the parents keep feeding them and teaching them to hunt.
This one is a big crop around a 50% of the original
One of the first images from the Canon 500 L IS II
used the 5D MIII +2x TC
Image is made handheld, at 1/1000, f6.3 ISO 1000
Since the BG was bright i over exposed the image at +1.5 stops


Do let me know your views , critiques are always welcome helps me learn
best regards
vishal

Very nice. I like the sharpness of the birds. The perch compliments a lovely BG colour. I just wish there wasnt so much blur on the wings of the swallow in flight, but apart from that it looks real good. Well done

I love the scene with that great perch, awesome background, and well balanced composition. Bummer that the adult's face has some motion blur to it, but the image is high-impact and attention grabbing - very neat.

Hi Vishal. Great composition, moment, perch & light! Love trio pose on the perch. Despite 50% crop you got nice frame with good details. The exposure is well balanced too. TFS.

Cheers,
Miro

What a gorgeous grouping with great action! The motion blur works for me as it gives a sense of the action.
