Captured this image a few days ago in a local wildlife preserve. Cedar Waxwings have some of the finest feather structure, which makes for a significant challenge to capture detail. This is cloud defused back side light using a Better Beamer @ -3 EV. C&C welcome.
D500, Nikon 500mm f4/G + 1.4 TC, 1/1000s, f 7.1, ISO 2000, Gitzo, Wimberley Gimbal head.
