Sandhill Cranes - Bosque
Captured this trio in the early morning light at the Bosque.
Cropped a bit and cloned out a remaining bird head on the right edge of the frame as I couldn't quite crop all of him out. Did a little color balance and added some black with selective color plus NR on entire image. Sharpened with USM at both original resolution and the re-sized for web version.
50D, EF400mm f/5.6L
Manual mode, f/5.6@1/1000 ISO 200 WB 5100K
AI Servo autofocus, hand-held no flash
Thank you for looking!

The birds stand out well and have good clarity and detail for the distance. I'd prefer a more oof background but you don't get everything everytime. :p
Hi Kerry - sweet light, lovely details, good flight positions - Lots to like here :)
Wings up on the LHS side bird would have put this over the top.
Like it as is - as well.
Sweet!!!

This is one sweet image and flight capture Kerry...Love it as is. You have the details and the color rendition to go along with it...very, very nice...I wish it were mine...:):cool:
Love it Kerry Got three good wing positions, well placed in frame and well exposed !!! I like it a lot !!!!
Very nice, Kerry. I like it as presented. Pano presentation with diagonal flight path and wing position makes it for me. Great light and colors.
