Osprey

[Katie Rupp]

A great day yesterday as I found a new spot and got to practice BIF with an Osprey pair. They flew back and forth looking for a meal, made only one strike (which of course I missed)! So here is one of the keepers. C&C encouraged and greatly appreciated.

Canon Mark III; f5.6, 1/2500; ISO 800; M; 500f4; HH

Nice shot with the wings down Katie. Looks sharp, maybe the eye a little too much?? Great high key BG, well done.

[Bob Decker]

Nice capture with a high-key background. Agree with Jackie eye looks a little over sharp and/or too bright in relation to the rest of the bird.

Hi Katie. Great high-key look, and the exposure on the bird looks good on my monitor. Nice and sharp. Could have wished for a bit of a head turn and more open near wing, I suppose, but you take what you can get. Good BIF image.

[Katie Rupp]

Thanks, guys, I went back to the raw image and the eye caught the sunlight but perhaps I enhanced that brightness a bit too much? I appreciate the feedback.

Like it as presented Katie. Great wing position. Whites look good on my monitor.
Congrats

Hi Katie - looks good on my screen - love the high key.
A bit of a head turn towards you would have been my only wish.
Good Show :)

whites look great to me!! usually burn the area on top of the head, but lots of detail there. only wish for a better head angle. have fun with the ospreys!!!
