    Default Lady Kestrel

    This is another frame from SoCal last year. I liked how she had puffed her chest feathers. Hope you like this one

    The IQ blows my mind. Super sweet light and beautiful head turn and eye contact; the feathers on the side are nicely shown. Well done.

    WoW! The only way I could see it being any better would be if both eyes were visible and I don't even know if that is possible from this angle.

    Lovely back stare Arash. IQ is top notch as usual and BG is a beauty!

    Question, you usually shoot 1/3200 unless you have to push ISO very high, any reason you dropped to 1/2500 here? Just trying to understand your thought process?

    Thanks

    Great pose, colors, amazing IQ. Adding a little canvas to the top would balance the composition even more.

    Thanks everyone,

    Shane, activity was low when we were shooting so I focused on perched birds.
