Hi Bruce,
You might want to add canvas on the bottom of the frame. It looks like your bird is coming in for a crash landing and no runway...:eek: Also he is coming home with battle scars and a purple heart for the sliced wing...:eek::eek::D
Hi Bruce this is a tough angle to photograph an Osprey form !!! The head is the brightest area and then you have the dark wings. One of the two is not going to work and will usually be the wings. As presented they look dark. The exposure seems fine for the head since more will over expose.
Would try going after a different angle. As presented you do want to include the entire bird and not clip. It is ok to crop on purpose but this is a good example of a clip !!! btw the image is sharp and it is the most difficult situation for the AF Coming straight at you !!! Are you using the latest firmware?
