The gymnast pose

[Kaustubh Deshpande]

this one reminds me of a gymnast on a beam :-) I just wish he had given me this pose when the sun was lower.

All C&C welcome.

Very nice pose Kaustubh. Nice details.

Kaustubh:

Sharp, well exposed, funny pose.
Perhaps a sliver more room below and right, but pretty close.

Did you do any shadow work under the wing? I wonder if you might be able to soften the shadows there just a bit, but still look natural.

Cheers

If the wing was a bit more in the up position this would have been awesome, but still pretty dang nice mate. I quite like the pose and your exposure is good! TFS. :)

Kaustubh, Excellent details and I like the pose. I love the foot!

Wonderful pose it made me laugh, brilliant image, I see wha tAkos means, but I would be more than happy with this.

Kaus, your pelican poses are killing me.;) Another great capture, and well timed for the stretch. Excellent exposure, and I like the eye.

Thx everyone.

Randy, I did some curves work(during raw conversion) to get some details out of the underwing shadows. But nothing extra special.
