I was thrilled to get this image... The focus isn't as crisp as I'd like... but hey... It's the first "Air Interaction" between two of these guys that I've come close to capturing.
What I like: Bird interaction of course, bird/bird separation, bird(s)/tree seperation... (The image had just a bit of help there as I did some very selective pruning to "un-encumber" the front great egret's left foot from a bit of tree branch.)... and I like the light.
What I don't like: Focus not quite where it should (could) be.
I love the interaction between your birds. You should be thrilled. On my monitor the exposure doesn't look quite right, but a very neat image. Looks like Venice??
Nice interaction here Steve. I particularly like the pose of the left hand bird as it almost grabs a tail feather from the other bird. Was this taken in the early morning or evening?
It is a very nice shot, agree with the saturation, but that is subjective, ifuse a medium eyedropper in curves on its legs and it goes away as well as the slider in saturation. Your sharpness problem is not sharpness it is the F5.6, no DOF, shoot at 7.1 and your sharp.
Off My Tree!
