Gitzo 5series + Sachtler Fluid Head
The pictures was taken on a very foggy day in the south of Germany end of October 2011!
I choosen this picture for my first thread in this forum and I am interested in your comments.
Welcome aboard. great first pose to start. I am liking the horizontal with all the space. Details in the bird are great. Bg is as good as it gets. You nailed the perfect head position. Well done. Looking forward to more.
The nice soft light really comes through nicely on this one. Good job on the bit of habitat and very complimentary colors. I also side with some off the right side. Looking forward to more.
Excellent start, I like the image as presented. On the right the foreground is clear and the background is wonderfully soft.
I always think the extra space gives an image a sense of solitude and with the soft background the image is so peaceful.
The only thing I'd work on is dark diagonal band in the lower right, this creates some tension which doesn't really fit. I
might even take a little off the left.
I think it is a super shot it is not very often you see shots pin sharp throughout the length of this bird species. I appreciate it was foggy but would suggest the image is perhaps a little bright. I attach an alternative for your consideration.
