1200mm Spoonbill cropping options
This is a pano crop of an image created on 18 SEPTEMBER 2020 at Fort DeSoto Park. I used the Induro GIT 404l/Levered-Clamp FlexShooter Pro-mounted Sony FE 600mm f/4 GM OSS lens, the Sony FE 2.0x Teleconverter, and the 61-MP Monster, the Sony Alpha a7R IV Mirrorless Digital camera body. ISO 400. The exposure was determined via Zebras with ISO on the rear wheel and confirmed as perfect in RawDigger: 1/1000 sec. at f/9. AWB at 5:242Pm on a sunny afternoon. Tracking Flexible Spot (M) Continuous AF was active at the moment of exposure and performed perfectly.
I have posted two alternative crops of the same image in the panes below. I'd love to know which crop you prefer. Comments on one or all are of course welcome and appreciated.
You can see the original and learn about the challenges involved in creating this image in the Roseate Spoonbill with white ruff cropping options. And advancing through a puddle on your knees and your butt blog post here.
Apologies for being 1/2 degree off sun angle ...
with love, artie
