    This image was created from a fixed public viewing hide at Martin Mere 'Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust' at last light on cold day in February.

    Canon 7D, Sigma 500 f4.5 hand held.

    ISO1600, f6.3, 1/1250 sec.

    Levels , saturation and sharpening applied. Small crop applied. I forgot to level the image when crop made.

    A pleasing image captured in low light. I don't mind the out of level and would not have noticed had you not mentioned it. Lacking a little detail but understandable with the 7D at ISO 1600. Regards, Ian.

    Not sure if the 7D couldn't handle ISO 1600? Perhaps underexposing the RAW file then boosting resulted in the noise. Good light would also help I think.
    My nearly 10-year old 30D is capable of reasonably good IQ at ISO 1600 as long as I expose properly.

    I don't mind the tilt, and really love the approaching shot.

    Thanks for sharing

    Nice incoming flight shot, Adrian. The background is a little too bright I think but that's what you got.

    Hi Adrian, great eye contact from this head on shot, and I like the shape of the wings, and that we can see the tail. Interesting colour to the sky - I like it. If anything, I would crop away the blue parts in the lower frame.
