Western Marsh Harrier Male

[subramanya_ck]

Made this image early this month in Bangalore, a day after heavy rains. Light was not at its best and conditions were not favouring low ISO shoot.

Tech : ISO 400, 1/100, f5.6, Aperture Mode, Evaluative Metering at -2/3 stops
Canon40D, Canon EF 500f/4+1.4E, Hand held

Comments & Critics are most welcome.

Thanks for looking.

Best Regards,
Subramanya

Subbu
Nice pose for WMH and sharpness looks good
I just downloaded your image and checked Histrogram , looks clipped from both side and on my calibarted monitor looks cooked up , I think you can redo this from your RAW files , I tried on JPEG
TFS

Here is the re-post. Please let me know your opinion..

Very nice pose, BG and perch, eye contact is good too, HA could be better.
Agree with Harshad that blacks are too dark, repost is better but there is still room for improvement.

Impressive pose well captured, Subramanya !! Like the posotioning of bird and perch relative to the excellent BG.
Best regards
