Challenge: Silhouettes V (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D Mark III
Lens: Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM
Location: My Balcony
Date: Jul 19, 2012
Aperture: 5.6
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/8000
Date Uploaded: Jul 22, 2012

 Noticed some crows on the neighbours roof. So I grabbed the camera and waited. One eventually came closer, landing in a tree. I took some shots of him. Then he transferred to a near by branch. I was on it and got the shot.
The bugs in the tree and the lit feathers, were a great bonus. Plus great wing spread, really drew me to this image. Not the easiest shoot though. Constantly looking towards the sun, was making shooting and reviewing difficult. I'm still seeing spots!

Image was cropped and very slight curves adjustment.

Love this shot, especially the glow on the wings.

The water droplets lend a lot of action to the scene. The splayed feathers make a really nice, clean silhouette.
