Little Ringed Plover
Lamma Island, 2008-01-05
Canon EOS 1D MK.2, EF500mm L, EF1.4x II 550EX + BB, Flash -1 2/3
f/11, 1/100s, ISO250
camera RAW, cropped, turned a little, clonning
Very nice angle and light, Griffin. I might give it more room on top and little bit less right. Did you clone something in the upper right? It looks a bit darker than the rest of the BG.
Axel is right on with his comments. I would add that pointing the lens an inch or two more to the left thus moving the bird a bit back in the frame would be an improvement as would eliminating the credit line or greatly reducing the size and impact...
I love the pink light and the reflection.
later and love,
