    Default Tundra Swan #2

    Hello, wishing everyone a fantastic 2012 filled with many great images. Thought I would share another shot of the Tundra Swan from a local sanctuary taken a few months back.

    7D, iso 250, 1/3200, f/5.6, 700mm. I hope you enjoy and any comments or critiques are always welcome.

    Gary.

    After posting I noticed I might need a tiny bit of CCW?

    Hi Gary, excellent exposure on the whites - lots of detail there. Good low perspective, and what a killer BG. I agree with your self critique regarding some CCW rotation.

    Excellent image Gary! I like the pose, low angle, exposure and BG. Another vote for CCW rotation.

    Really digging that low angle here Gary. Such a sweet shot. Love the curved neck and downward look.

    Gary, low angle, contrast, perfect whites, clean BG, the neck curve....all together make this such a pleasure to look at. I dont think rotation is needed...or did you replace the orig with a rotated one?
