    Default Lesser Flamingo

    Back from a short trip to Jamnagar, Gujarat, India. Made few shots of Lesser Flamingos and ducks.

    Canon 7D, Canon 500mm f4+1.4x TC. ISO 200 - f/5.6 - 1/1000 Sec.

    As usual from you the IQ is very high in this image. The shooting angle, position of the birds, exposure, bg are spot on. Beautiful image!

    Nice image with great low angle, and bkgd. Two perfect HA's. Might loose the two brighter spots just above the white line on the left frame edge.

    Fantastic sharpness/detail with this one. Looks like you got just the right angle too - I don't think it would have worked if shot from a higher angle. If anything, I might lower the exposure a little, but that's about it.

    Awesome image.

    I like this lots. Excellent low angle, and good DOF for F/5.6. I do like the colours of the flamingo's, especially on their heads and beaks. Killer BG too.

    You did a great job positioning yourself here....to get both birds within the wide-open DOF range. And then timing the capture of the nice head positions. loved the BG. exposure looks good and composition is 'just right'.
