    Default Dispute

    From my last trip to Bosque del Apache. It was a cloudy and rainy morning, the light wasn't really good, but the scene made it :).

    Looks a bit like "Gangs of New York":



    All comments welcome

    Does look like two rival gangs fighting !!! I like the overall feel Could only wish not to have some of the head merges but in group images is difficult ... that is what makes this type image so difficult. Did not see the compensation but image seems a little underexposed? How was the histogram?

    Framing wise might have pointed the camera to the right and going wider overall to avoid clipping some of the birds !! I like what your trying here !!!!

    Light didn't help you here, except you could have gotten a high key image. Agree on pointing the image to the right. Good interaction.

    Agree with Alfred on all counts. It is the head mergers of the two young birds in the rear that hurt his otherwise interesting image.

    Many thanks for the suggestions. The situation lasted for a few seconds only, I have got 3 frames and that is the one with the best composition.

    On the exposure side, it was lighter originally and I enhanced the contrast a bit to much.
