Greetings:
I got this image of a White Crown Pigeon in the Everglades National Park yesterday morning. Have not seen any posted and thought it would be a good one to share. Hope you like it.
All comments and suggestions welcomed.
Best, Michael
Here are the stats::
Canon 40D
Shutter speed: 1/3200 sec
Aperture: 6.3
Exposure mode: Manual
Flash: External E-TTL High speed sync
Metering mode: Evaluative
Drive mode: Continuous (high): frame 1
ISO: 400
Lens: EF500mm f/4L IS USM
I like the landing pose and composition and wish there were more details in the shadows. The BG looks quite noisy, did you sharpen the entire image or just the bird?
Agree that there is some noise but really like the pose and angle. It's so nice to see a different species photographed in Florida. I never knew we had these here.
