My problem was catching one of these guys perched. I tried many flight shots but could not get a good one -- they (tree swallow) are very quick! I hope the colors are OK on this one . . . don't think I changed them. I made a pretty big crop (leaving only about 25% of the original).
Nicely done Wendell.
I can't tell if there is degradation due to a large crop or not, but there is certainly lots of detail and nicely focussed. I like the ss.
It is a tough exposure but it looks all right to me.
Hi Wendell It is a good image just the large crop is hurting quality !!! As presented would try lightening the are in front of the eye so its clearly visible, Good looking birds and don't give up on flight !!! btw the toughest part about these guys is that you need to be in close focusing since they will be that close for obtaining a decent bird in frame !!! Good luck !!!
Hi Wendell,The colors seem fine to me and you positioned the bird well in the frame. Agree with Al on the large crop reducing quality and lightening the area in front of the eye. Would have liked to have seen the head looking more towards the viewer...
A quiet moment
