Hoodie

Went out this AM to check my gear and "Knock the Rust Off" my skills, in preperation for our upcoming Bosque trip.
Looking forward to this as it will be my first time there.

800 ISO f8 at 1/1000th
manual mode , Inc. metered
Cropped for comp.

Joe:

Always good to get in some practice before a big outing! You want to make the most of the trip, and hit the ground running!

Your hoody is sharp, good exposure except on the very front of his white crest, where I am not seeing much detail.

Light was well off to your right.

From a comp standpoint, I might consider cropping down from the top about 1/3 of the free space.

What gear were you using?

Cheers

Randy

Nice Merganser Joe. Hood almost up, sharp and the water is awesome. These guys are tough. If you can handle the exposure on this breed, you can certainly handle a Sand hill Crane!

Love this one Joe, beautiful colors and the light angle adds drama. Maybe you should be staying home and getting your rest instead???

[Doug Brown]

Like the sharpness and the partially raised hood. Side-lighting is tough with these guys; to get the best exposure you need the sun behind you. Otherwise you risk overexposing your whites. When are you going to be at the Bosque?

[arash_hazeghi]

very nice, exp is a challenge with these guys, I am not seeing much details perhaps a large crop?

Joe, Nice Hoodie, I like the water color and the sharpness looks good. Nice light on the eye. These guys are my faves. Have a great time in Bosque-you will love it!
