Northern Shovler

[Krishna Prasad kotti]

This is my first attempt at Flight Photography this Year...

This image was taken at Antelope Island State Park Couple of weeks back.

Nikon D500, 500 f/4 + 1.7x TCIII
ISO 800, f/6.7, 1/3200
Matrix Metering, Manual Mode

Post Processing:-
Repositioned the Bird. Heavy Crop.
Nik Filter and Neat Image for Noise Reduction

I wish the light was a little better, but I could get the birds to fly once the sun was a bit lower in the Horizon.

Let me know your thoughts and comments.

Thanks
Krishna

Wing position great. Light: very harsh. Image quality not good due to the large crop. WHITEs somewhat grey and colors somewhat muddy ...

with love, artie

Hard to get close to these guys in my local. The pose is nice. Wish there were some clouds in that sky.

Ditto Artie, nice light and wing position but the bird was just too far to make this a keeper frame....
