Took this last August in Nd slough. Was a really special morning with lots of birds that I sort of screwed up waiting for the fog and haze from the wildfires to lift. Should have pushed my ISO more. I figured I had plenty of time but my birds left unfortunately. This was my fifth edit kept coming back and trying something different. Originally had to
much oranges and saturation. I know this is too large in the frame for some, just personnel preference. Shot in vertical. Decided not to clean up the bill, why look at the feet. Processed with Dpp 4, Topaz noise, I think been a few weeks. Photoshop.
