Image is from the south west coast of Norway. It was a cold winter evening just before the sun went down. Data: 500mmL F4, 0 IS, ISO 100, 1 / 125, 4.0 F, Bean bag. Date: 27 December 2009
Good low shooting angle, well exposed, sense of motion from blurred foot. The lighting really makes the bird standout from the background
The second bird in the background would be more effective if it didn't overlap the front on, was offset away from the head. Do you have any frames without the back bird?
I would have been tempted to push the ISO up to get more flexibility in your shutter speed and aperture.
Great low angle and good exposure on these, Geir. Like the both poses & HAs, and agree with Randy, the bird in back of the first one is a bit distracting. Nice captures!
