    Default Angry Birds # 3- Last one

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    I am always hesitant to post the same birds multiple times in a row as I think people get " image fatigue".
    But for better or worse here is my final installment!
    Would love to hear which of the 3 you prefer.
    Canon 1DX 600MM
    ISO 800 SS 1/1600 f 8.0
    Crop to ~ 65% FF, nothing clone or altered. Processed in DPP then off to Photoshop :NR to BG, levels, DE to birds at 2% for front bird and 8% in top bird to get as much detail out of the belly and axilla as possible.
    Comments and critiques are always appreciated and learned from with thanks,
    Gail

    Hi Gail,

    I like this one a lot, I think I still like #2 the best but this one is a close second. I like that we can see the eye of the left side bird through its wing and the action of the right bird is terrific. Great image. I'm glad you posted all three, no fatigue here.

    I wouldn't worry about image fatigue:) I think the important thing is to get a wide portfolio of single species and not repeats of the same kind of shot IMHO.
    The intersects by the primaries are the only issues here IMHO...but a well executed and processed shot Gail. I do love the setting:)

    Great series Gail, glad that you posted this one as well.
    It's hard to tell, (which one is the best) all three are unique in terms of portraying confrontational action.
    Well done.

    Nice series...would be interesting to see the full series in a single image like a film strip. Thanks for sharing this with us, Gail. I really enjoyed these photos.

    Hi Gail,
    Just looked at the whole series and I like the action and colors in these. Hard to get both subjects in perfect position but I think this last one is the best. That green BG and the water splashing makes this one really nice. TFS
