White Stork I

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks ... just found by luck these White Storks quite close to my place , took the chance to shoot them this morning
Without knowing about their breeding behavior i.e. times when to start with nest building etc .... they seem to be quite late with this . So maybe this is a young couple ...
Shot handheld while standing on the back of my truck bed .

F 6,3 ; Iso 1000 ; 1/3200 sec

Processed with DT 4.6.1 and PSCC 2024 ; slight crop from top and RHS ... I know the branch on the RHS is a pain in the butt , but unavoidable at that location

Thanks for looking and commenting to my previous postings

Cheers Andreas

Good clear view of the storks, interesting poses and excellent processing.

Those are fun double poses! Tough busy habitat. You could clean up the lower edge by removing some of the extra twigs down there, but otherwise you did well considering how busy the surroundings are.
