    Default Spoonie Pano

    Became a bit frustrated while trying to isolate and photograph some spoonies in gorgeous light. As you can see, it appears to have been siesta time. Therefore, went wider to see if I could make lemonade out of lemons. Not sure I succeeded, so your C & C would be much appreciated.

    Thank you for looking.

    I like this! Beautiful light and colours. Composition works as presneted but maybe a tiny bit more at the bottom.

    Marina, I feel you have thought this out very well. The standing spoonie with two resting spoonies on either side. Colours look good, all four in perfect focus, and the only thing I would change here, is add a touch to the RHS.

    Beautifully captured and composed.

    I like the group dynamics ... with the center bird appearing to stand sentry watch while the others rest.

    Agree with the RHS space suggestion.

    I think it turned out very well Marina. The exp is right on, the reflected colors on the water are great, and although the birds are not on plane they all look fairly sharp.

    Makes me think of see no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil! Great shot with all birds in focus!

    What's not to like? Looks good to me. Could you have gotten more of the birds reflection?
