    Arash:

    Lovely shoveler, nice pose, soft light really helped with the colors, got to love that bill.

    I might be tempted to increase the exposure a bit to bring up the whites.

    Cheers

    One of the cleanest Shovelers I have seen!! I agree with Randy, you could lift this a tad...

    Just love the colors in the low light. I see the point about raising slightly but really love it as is. TFS

    Wow Arash! I love this one. So freakin' sharp. Agree with raising exposure ever so slightly (but protect white on the hip/flank) but otherwise this is "rockstar"!

    That's about as good as it gets. Great Shoveler shot. No nits.

    Yep, I do. Like it that is. As you guys say, no nits. That's full frame with with a 600 plus 2x?! Someone said the whites might be a bit low, perhaps.

    thanks all, to be honest after years of shooting 600 + 2X with DSLR's the A9 II feels like cheating :D not so much gratification after you get hundreds of shots like this in an hour or two... :D

    I should have bumped up the brightness a bit I was working in a dark romm
