Very bad light when I was shooting this . I managed to locate the bird because of the melidious song .
Techs:-
Model = Canon EOS-1D Mark III
Exposure Time = 1/60"
F Number = F8
Exposure Program = Aperture priority
ISO Speed Ratings = 3200
Exposure Bias Value = -0.33EV
Metering Mode = Spot
Focal Length = 1200mm
White Balance = Manual white balance
Always interesting to see a species I have never heard of.
Image is very engaging but I think needs some room on the right, and that is coming from someone who crops tight. I also like the detail in the upper wing area. The IQ seems very good for such a high ISO.
Thanx Tom . Actually this is shot with a 2X TC ...so at 1200mm and a FF image . Interestingly I was trying for some more room on the left and I did try to move away to get some more room ,but the guy flew away .
'MELODY SONGS OF BIRDS, ATTRACTED.. PHOTOGRAPHERS..' I read this Quotes from net. I think you have same story.
but..nicely captured.. cutey bird.. I like details and color.. I enjoy really
Beautiful colors and complimentary BG all work together. Wonderful detail and exposure. never saw one of these so TFS. I might think about making this a horizontal with canvas added on the right. It,(the bird), needs some space to "look into".
Really well done Rakesh - I am amazed at the image quality you have achieved given what was required to get the shot (ISO3200, 1/60s, 2X TC (I assume?)). Great pose. I am a little torn on the bright green spot - it does distract from the subject, but makes for an interesting background. A little more canvas on the right maybe?
