Marbled Godwit flight II

Here is another Godwit shot.



MK4 500+1.4TC, f/5.6 1/3200sec ISO 800. Thanks for viewing

Cool capture, light, wing position, eye contact and complementing BG make this one for me. Maybe a bit more room at the top? I might lighten the shadow of the near wing. Amazing that there is motion blur on the wing despite the high shutter speed. It could go a tad lighter for my taste.

[Bill Dix]

Super light and stunning bg. Ditto Axel re the shadow and tightness in the frame (personal preference).

[Ivan Sjögren]

Amazing flight shot Arash. Good light, sharpnes and and eye contact with a small head turn. Agree about waths been said, maybe also a bit more room to the left?

[adrian dancy]

Superb I agree a bit tight.

[Ofer Levy]

Fantastic light, eye contact and BG. Would crop slightly less as the BG is so pretty and the bird needs some more space to fly in...;)

[arash_hazeghi]

Thanks guys, this is almost full frame image no more room on the left. I will try to add a bit more canvas to the left later...

Arash, The BG steals the show here. Very beautiful colors and lighting. Nice sharp details on the bill and head.

[Caroline Darmo]

Hi Arash, the lighting is fantastic, beautiful background and nice wing position.

[Dan Brown]

Beautiful BG Arash! Could the close wing be out of the DOF Plain (PLANE):)

[arash_hazeghi]

Here is a repost with more room.

@Dan: right, it is running out of dof at the wing tips and there is also some motion blur.

Thanks everybody for nice comments.

Arash, loved the repost but would move the bird a bit higher in the frame in it. Awesome sharp focus on where it should be. Light is goegeous. Thx for sharing.

[Stu Bowie]

Arash, superb light and I like the warm colours. Sharp where it counts, and what a killer BG. Well captured.

[Markus Jais]

Amazing flight shot with awesome light, perfect wing pose and great BG.

This one is all about warmth. Wonderful image, Arash.

[Fabs Forns]

Way too sweet, and you did very well in the repost.

[Chris van Rooyen]

Lovely light and posture. The placement in the repost is better. I'm surprised that you got motion blur at that shutter speed, but it does not detract from the photo.

[James Salywoda]

Outstanding Arash! Beautiful Shot.
