The image was created in my backyard in the middle of Sweden.
Canon EOS 40D, Canon EF 300mm f/2.8L IS USM, Soligor 1,4X PRO Digital AF, Canon speedlite 580EX II, Tripod, 420mm, iso400, 1/200s, f/5.6, BetterBeamer, Manual exposure!
Nice exposure, and flash work. The broken off perch is unattractive, and if this is a set up. I would suggest you set up one that is a bit smaller, and not broken off. You might also try a crop from the top.
Thanks Aidan! It is a set up but i have not done nothing to the perch, just took it from the forest! I am going to find a better one and replace this one! You guys really has an eye for details! No one on my Swedish forum ever comments the perches! Maybe you guys are a couple of years ahead of us:)
Sharpness and exposure control look very good. I agree with Aidan regarding a smaller perch and also wish the angle were less steep and I find the big circles in the BG distracting. If this is a setup then you could try to find a more uniform BG.
