    Not much choice to use the highest ISO to capture this noisy bird after sunset.


    D2Hs, 200-400 VR + TCx1.4, 1/180", f/5.6, @560mm, 6400 ISO, Monopod

    The singing/calling pose looks great. I wish for more room at the left and top and would tone down the whites on the perch and apply some NR on the BG.

    Awesome pose! You cut the poor guy's tail off! :) Needs more room on the left and up top..could cut some off the right. Whites are blown also.

    You caught some great action, tail mentioned and the ISO at 6400? Good catch.

    Well done. Would crop from the bottom. Clipping the tail is a mortal sin... later and love, artie

    Amazing for the light you had. You could try to lighten the eye area a little.

    Oh very nice....Why did you clip the tail?? I would run the image with a NR software.
