MOTIF: Crow in the sunset

[Desmond Chan]

D300 200-400@270 not on tripod. All natural light. ISO 1250 f5.6 1/640s.

I think a crow needs a messy background to go with it :D

C&C welcome !

Thanks for looking !

Hi Desmond

Crow are difficult to capture looking good .... I mean the feathers with shadow detail.
This is good !!! ... not a cloning fan but for this one I would do some heavy duty pruning !!!

Well composed and executed Desmond,
I like the sharp details in the wings...the head angle and eye contact are dead on...congrats...:cool:

Thanks guys!

Got some info and found out that this bird actually is a raven. Oooops ! :o

Big Congrats.
