Welcome to BPN, James! Please post only one image per thread, I fixed it for you. I like the details and head angle in this one. You could try to tone down the highlights a bit. Keep them coming!
Welcome, James. Good post. I like the pose and plumage details. Including the techs (camera, lens,ISO, aperture, SS, metering etc) with the post can help in getting more constructive feedback on the image.
I apologize Axel I wasn't aware of multiple postings in same thread anyhow thanks for correcting my error.
Tony,
Here is the exif on the photo I wasn't aware of my ISO setting until I just pulled it but wow. i was shooting in the wetlands and in the back it gets alot of cover and I have to up my ISO to get the proper shutter speed needed with the lens to get those sharp images.
ISO 1000
AV 5.6
shutter was 1/3200
Lens used was Canon 400mm 5.6
Camera used is 1DMKIII
