    Default Impala fight

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    Canon 30D, 400DO, f7.1, 1/160, ISO 800, P.67, spot meter, HH, nearly FF wide. PP: Softlight layer (30%), sharpened in Bridge and selectively in PS, curves to darken background, bit of bluring of background (should have reduced noise, but..).

    I'm not sure if they were fighting for real, or just playing. Either way, they seemed to me to be pretty serious about it. It went on for several minutes.

    Nice action capture. I like the balanced, mirror image poses of these two. The green reflection off the retinas looks a little strange (although I'm pretty sure that's natural with these). Personal preference, I might crop in even tighter on both top and bottom to eliminate some of the bright rocks.

    I like it as presented, it gives them some space all around. great action!

    Well done Douglas. I like the crop as is and the symmetry of the two is just right to balance the image. Nice going.
