    Default Dive!



    The Osprey action at Damariscotta Mills, Maine this AM was good. The Alewife run is in full swim. Lots of fish lots of birds and more photographers - about 40 folks a world record!

    1dmk3 on 500 f4 at iso 400, 1/1250, f6.3, manual exp., aiservo, hand held. More to follow! Bob

    Cool action captured here and great timing but would like to see more eye contact and the front of the head. Good exposure on the underside and excellent detail. Many thanks for sharing Bob.

    Bob:

    Very neat pose. I took the liberty of tweaking the head. Lightened the head overall and the eye specifically, with an increase in contrast for the eye as well. Since you can't change the angle, I figured I could improve the eye contact of what you have. Just an option for you.

    Cool image and diving pose and a great repost by Randy. With the head angled away however, this one will not be winning any prizes. Congrats on the world record.

    Excellent detail from the underwing, and Randy's work on the head and eye works well.
