    Default Spoonbill coming in

    This was taken last Saturday on an island in the Indian River near Titusville, FL that the locals use as a rookery. Taken with the Nikon D3 and the Nikon 300mm F/4 and 1.4 TC. ISO 400; f/8; 1/2000 sec ; -0.67 EV adjustment

    Harry:

    Your spoonie is sharp, well exposed, good head angle, interesting pose.

    I would like a little more canvas on the left if possible.

    Thanks for sharing. I hope to seeing some in person soon!

    Sharp and an interesting pose. You did well in relatively harsh light. As presented this could use a crop from the bottom.

    I agree with a crop from bottom. Very cool wing position with the head sticking down between them. The eye is nicely lit.
