Carganey couple

[Amir Reza Borhani]

I take this low angle photo from carganey couple at East-Azerbaijan, NW of Iran.

All comments and critiques are wellcome.

canon 40D, Sigma 300-800 f/5.6

f/6.3, 1/640s, iso 320, 800mm

Amir:

Nice low shooting angle. The drake is sharp, while the hen is less so, with head turning away.

Good exposure.

The debris in the water detracts from the image and hurts the reflection.

When shooting pairs, I always try to maximize depth of field, and I think you could have traded some ISO for a smaller aperture.

Cheers

Very good critique by Randy and I really can't add much but I do think that the low angle and the overall IQ is very nice.

Hi Amir, agree with Randy's comments, but I must say I really like how you composed the image; just need a bit more room on the right.
