Taken this morning. Very bright sun , windy and cold. Not the best conditions but always worth being out shooting.
D300 with AF-S 300 2.8 + TC 1.4E
F 6.3 , 1/2000 , iso 400 , -0.7ev
Thanks for looking.
Cool looking pose, Carmelo, and excellent exposure. Nice details, like the diagonal, and whites came out nice. Wondering about lightening some of the darker patches in upper BG area, but very nicely done!
Hi Carmelo, interesting flying posture, looks like he's gliding, but still having captured most of the downstroke of the wing. Overall sharp, well exposed, and nicely separated from the sea BG. I would maybe run a touch of NR on the BG.
Good IQ and exposure, and I love the texture of the water. I normally prefer a better pose on the wings (straight up or down) but since this is obviously a gilding approach I'm OK with it here...I do wish this fella wasn't angled away from us though.
