    Default Mäusebussard - Buteo buteo

    my first photo here in the forum. Suggestions are welcome.



    EOS 1D MK III
    Tv (Verschlusszeit) 1/1600
    Av (Blendenzahl) 5.0
    Messmodus Integralmessung
    Belichtungskorrektur +1
    Filmempfindlichkeit (ISO) 800
    Objektiv EF500mm f/4L IS USM

    Buteo was taken from a hut in the winter feeding. Top right a little used.
    Would appreciate any tips.

    Hello Horst- This image has a lot of potential. I love the wing angle and habitat and the overall wild feel of the image. Composition works well. The only thing I might suggest is dodging the face to brighten up the area around the eye. What does "Mäuse" mean auf deutch?

    Hello Horst and welcome to Eager To Learn! I look forward to seeing more of your images.

    You had a tough lighting situation here, looks like the sun was above and to the right. As John mentions, the face is a bit dark and could be lightened. Would be great to see the buzzard completely out of the weeds! I like your flight capture and composition. Well done.

    Of course- die fledermaus- the flying mouse AKA a bat! A mouse seems a bit small for a Buzzard!
