    Default Eastern Meadowlark

    Captured this little fellow near my home this evening. The oof brambles in the foreground bother me a bit (even though I went with a smaller aperture to try and deal with them). Other than that, it's nice having a decent pose of one on something other than a fencepost!

    Canon 1DsMII, 600mm f/4L with 1.4x TC, f/10, 1/125, ISO 200, 0 EV, off BLUBB out car window.

    Hey Bob,

    You are right. Something different. I like it as presented with very nice habitat. Am I going to see you tomorrow at Ding??

    LOL - I was waiting for that! Actually, I should've cloned out those two errant twigs on the right as well. Will polish it a bit before moving it along.

    Like it as presented but do agree that it would benefit from a little additional sharpening.

    Super Bob. The image has some marvelous elements including light and colour the techs are spot on to my eye.

    I like the pose, light and bg, but am less enthusiastic about the twiggy perch since it obscures the bird's legs.

    Nice light, BG and colors. It looks a bit soft, and I'm not fond of the perch.
