Taken in SW Florida last week. This confiding bird returned to the same rocks every evening at 4:30PM like clockwork. I just had to wait for a nice sunset to give me the light I was hoping for.
Canon 1Dx
600mmII and 1.4x
ISO 800 SS 1/1600 F 7.1
PP: Small crop to ~80% FF, levels, DE at 1%, cloned out a bright area to the right of AMOC head, USM to JPEG
Comments and critiques always appreciated and learned from with thanks,
Gail
I toyed with the idea of desaturating the bill a bit, but it really was this color because of the setting sun
