Water Pipit

[Ilija Dukovski]

Taken in Skopje, Macedonia. The slope is a river bank. This is large crop, about 20%.
No cloning done here.
Nikon D80 300mm+TC1.4 Matrix AP+2/3 f/5.6 1/400 ISO400

Comments appreciated.

Ilija - I like this image because it is so unique to see a bird perched on a sloped face like this and you really captured the little guy nicely in a sharp slice of focal delight. The shot has a cold, barren look to it that I like.

The diagonal slope makes this rather interesting, nice exposure and detail looks pretty good.

Kako si Ilija? ;) Nice bird and I like the diagonal shoreline with the various color patterns. With the crop did you mean this is 20% of full frame? If so, then it still held up quite well. :)

I like the color variations captured on the rivers bank the Pipit gave you nice eye contact and the details look excellent.

Dobro sum Akos. Yes it is 20% of full frame. The D80 is actually performing quite well in good light.
In low light however it is quite noisy.
