It was nice Sunrise at Main Pond and I was really happy with the sky colors. I wish the bird was a bit more to the left but I caught this one coming in Late.
Nikon D500, 500mm f/4
ISO 800, f/5.6, 1/30 sec
Shutter Priority, +1 EV
Based on histogram I should have been with +1 2/3 EV
Post processing:-
Exposure changes. Brightened the bird a little.
Little Crop to get Bird off center.
Luminar to add more structure on the clouds.
Noise Reduction with Neat Image
Sharpening.
I'm enjoying this series Krishna. Very nice work on this one with the bird's body pretty sharp but the wings blurred. Of course, the sky is beautiful and really sets this one off. I know you probably want as much of that sky in as possible but I'd be tempted to take a bit off the bottom and maybe a whisker off the top. Thanks for sharing.
Great colours, I agree, but I wish the goose was more in the lower right corner for compositional balance. The cloud streaks above add lots of interest.
Fantastic colours, and although blurs are not my thing, this one works well. Only little nit pick from me would to remove the halo form the underside of the bird
For the Halo, I inspected it closely, it the combination of cloud and wing blur which seems like Halo.
I wanted to crop it more for composition but the sky was so good that I left it. I might do it latter as I have few more shots in which the bird is not as sharp but the wings blur are much nicer.
Snow Goose at Sunrise.
