    Default Juvenile harrier in golden light

    here is another frame of the juvenile harrier, thought about cropping this vertically first but decided to keep it landscape since it shows typical behavior of these birds, i.e. flying low to the ground. The Juvenile plumage is quite different than the adult, this being a first winter bird with some fuzz still visible on her.




    Shot with the D5 and 600mm f/4 E FL TC 1.4X III ISO 1250 f/5.6 at 1/32000sec hand held processed with Capture One Pro 11. hope you like it

    Beautiful, with golden light adding much to the image. Incredible clarity, great HA and wing position. Looks like the D5/lens combo is a sure winner! How are you finding Capture Pro 11 as opposed to DPP in terms of usability, features etc?

    Hi Paul DPP is obviously only for Canon RAW files while Capture One Pro works with every camera and has a ton of features that no other software has. What is incredible about C1P is the speed of processing, it can render a 45 mega pixel D850 file almost instantaneously on my system and crunch through thousands of huge RAW files like a breeze.

    Definitely the right choice to include the habitat in the frame (IMHO of course!). Nothing wrong with the clean BGs of course, but inclusion of the environment often adds an extra layer of interest.

    Love to see the wing span and the fanned tail, gorgeous light.

    Great light, super sharp, and perfect lighting on the complete undersides with no shadows! Well done. You have a really fast camera "1/32000sec. "

    My suggested 3X2 crop eliminates most of the shadows on the bottom and gets the bird out of the center of the frame. IQ, great to start with, held up well to the crop.

    with love, artie

    Thanks Artie, like the crop, My original dilemma was what to do with the shadow on the ground?...Figured if I leave it all in might give a more sense of depth to the image but I think I like your crop better too
