Challenge: At the Zoo (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Nikon D70
Location: Flamingo Gardens, Davie, FL
Date: Jul 13, 2005
Galleries: Animals, Water
Date Uploaded: Jul 16, 2005

 At an aviary in the Flamingo Gardens in Fl.All the birds in this aviary are hurt in some way but this projects mission is to release these birds offspring into the wild. Its a nice place to visit. I really hope it wasnt the only catch of the day..lol. Some Hue&Saturation and Level adjustments. Also some healing on the wing because it was too blown out and it was very distracting.

I'm a sucker for animal/wildlife photos. Beautiful capture. Beautiful colors.

I myself liked the blurred effect on the beak because I thought it showed the movement of the bird while catching the fish. At the same time I liked the sharp eye that lets you see the bird and connect with it. Thank you for your comments!

congratulations on catching the exact moment the bird got its fish dinner! The look in the birds eye shows its determination and really stands out to me. The bill is a little blurry.

I really like this photo, I myself tried to capture something similar and its very hard to get the right picture. Good focus.

Adjusting votes and making sure I looked at all the photos closely. Cool that you were able to snap him getting the fish. I missed that the first time around.

If ya coulda captured it without motion blur, it'd be damn near perfect!

Good action but the moving beak (IMHO) distracts. A faster shutter speed would have been great!

Since I am lacking in technical skills, I cannot give helpful comments. I am strictly a photo buff who is trying to improve, but as to telling you what is wrong or right, I am in no position to say. I am simply voting based on whether I like the picture or not. Sorry, maybe someday I will be able to give helpful advice

Lovely colors. The movement is nice. The light hitting the top of his wings is stunning.
