Double-banded Plover
1D Mark IV, Canon 800 f5.6, x1.4, 1/1000, f8, iso 400, Gitzo tripod
Taken this morning in Boat Harbour near Sydney. Just a simple image of a plain bird but I still like it.
The Canon 800 f5.6 is just amazing (I know I say it every time). Sharpnes even with the x1.4 converter is mind blowing.
About 80% of full frame
Great looking bird. Nice and sharp and lots of feather detail. BG is very complimentary and I really like the nice flat foot. I would clean up the few droppings just this side of bird.
Interesting to see the inclusion of the dark area on right as I find it distracting.
very sweet light and pose Ofer, I like it a lot. the rock on the right is a bit distracting but not a big deal given everything else. very sharp details

very nice image Ofer,sharp,nice detail,not so keen on the rock on the right,but still a very nice image,wish we had the light over here in the Northwest of England,its been rubish these last couple of months.well done.
Beautiful light and complimentary colors. I wish the black area wasn't there as it draws the eye away from the plover.Perfect HA. I do love the horizontal lines in the rock though-adds great texture,

Ofer:
The bird is nice in all respects! Colors nice as well. I was struck by the dark shadow at once, and would try to dodge it a bit so it doesn't contrast so sharply with the other ares of rocks.
Good shooting angle as well.
Cheers

Ofer, terrific IQ here. excellent exposure and shoot angle as always. agree with arash...the rock is a bit distracting but rest all is so good that I dont mind it much.
Beautiful and colorful image. Sharp and well composed.
Wonderful image. Excellent pose with a great head angle. Detail is amazing, very nice light, agree on the rock ,but not a deal breaker.
Very well done.
