    Early Morning Grebe


    This Great Crested Grebe was shot in the early morning light. I experimented with a cross lighting situation, not going fully for a back-lit scenario.


    Nikon D500, 500 F4 G ED VR, 1.4X TCIII; Exposure Time—1/640 seconds, F—7.1, ISO—800


    I appreciate all the critiques. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR VIEWING & INPUTS.

    Like the pose on the bird and low angle. The ripples in the water are neat.

    Perfectly framed and I love the raised crest. It looks as if there is a color cast, possibly too YELLOW?

    Thanks a ton, Sir. I am really struggling with these kinds of early morning/ sunset shots (color balancing). I would lessen the yellow cast. Thanks again Sir for your input.
    with warm regards,

    Yes to a colour cast, and perhaps a need for some CW rotation, but I love the early morning feel. Beautiful subject!

    Thanks a ton for your input. I will certainly be more cautious with my PP.
    Thanks again.
