    Default Worth working on?

    Hey guys,
    I took this photo a while back, unfortunately I did not pat attention to shutter speed and combined with panning it didn't come out that sharp, But at small size it is acceptable especially I like the back light on the feathers. Do you think it is worth working on blurring the foliage and playing with colors?

    Thanks :)


    D700 + 300f/4 +1.4X TC at 1/600 sec f/8 ISO 400.

    Arash, I like the back lighting effect bringing out the detail in the wings, but there appears to be movement in the feet which is a distraction. Were the entire bird sharp I'd say try adding some add'l motion blur to the BG and then you'd have a fine image, but it's a tough one to work on. Nice camera!

    Hi Arash Worth working on !! I like the exposure on the whites and delicate light Head angle is a bit off and bird seems to be turning

    When working on the bg just blur to reasonable level .. like if it was made at 2.8 !! btw shutter speed wise I like to go for the opposites Razor sharp or blur Here the blur would have been better since it takes care of the bg !!!

    Hi Arash,
    I like the capture...agree with Mr. Forns on the techs...I would suggest cropping 1/4 from the top and a tad from the right side of the frame...looking forward to your next one...:cool:
