    Default Sit and Scratch

    Taken last April in Texas. Driving back to our rental we came across this cheeky chappie enjoying the last of sun. It made me laugh when he sat down and had a scratch and then took his dust bath, you can just make out the bowl just to his left.

    EV +0.33. F4, ISO 640, 1/1000. Approx 40% removed for pano.

    Chris:

    Sharp, nicely exposed, interesting action.

    What camera and lens? Did you shoot from the car, or get out and crawl around?

    Cheers

    I like the behaviour captured Chris, with good sharp detail on the head. I would maybe take away some of the OOF FG. Shooting from a car downwards onto the ground isnt ideal, but this angle doesnt look too bad, as if he was on a slightly higher slope.
