This image has a special feel to it (for me.) The colors are rich and the details are tack sharp. The oof foreground and background really serves to isolate and emphasize the birds. Nice shot.
That is one fine image - just oozing with quality, I like the colours and the details and the beautiful setting. To get both birds' heads sharp really puts the icing on the cake!:cool:
Congratulations on fulfilling your dream! Fantastic eye contact from both birds. You got both birds sharp, even though you were shooting wide open. I like the OOF habitat too.
Excellent techs, interesting subjects, good timing, nice story. Can't beat that.
The only small point would be to do a bit of work on the OOF foliage by the left birds right leg. The OOF area covers part of the leg and tail feathers, and I think a bit of PP work would clean the overlap up.
CVongrats on the sighting. The colours work well here. You've done well to get both in focus at 5.6. Both have good eye detail. I see Randy's point on the OOF area, but still great.
Well done on getting a spectacular species in spectacular light. You did well to get the birds clean and both in focus, and the eye contact! I know how difficult bustards are to photograph, they are forever walking away from the camera:D
