Hi Arash, beautiful job on this! Exposure is right on along with nice even lighting.Another example of birds in habitat that works very well. Very nice!

Terrific shot, Arash. Beautiful light, exposure, action and habitat. Well done indeed!

[Peter Coskun]

Great timing, I always find it tough for me to get the whites nice like this on these birds. You seem to have nailed the exposure here.

Thanks a lot guys, should mention exposure was Av (dof control) -2/3 for maximum whites tones, with he 5D I don't worry about the blacks anymore can pull them up with no noise.
