this was quite underexposed, was aiming for a silouette of it in the trees, toward the sun. it just dove and swooped toward too fast to check the exposure. so there some major levels work done, a mild burn, and a slight blur to the BG.

was hoping to get it right, but practice makes perfect... both with the camera, and after the fact.


canon 75-300mm - f:4-5.6 - 480mm equiv - handheld - fully manual- uncropped

Set against that blurred background, he seems to be flying right out of the picture.

I like this very much: the angle of view with you on the same hight as the flying bird is awesome and seldom seen. The background works great too. Also like the cropping. The bird could be a bit larger though. Good luck.

Very nice capture - perfect exposure, composition couldn't be better. I like the way the background is light, really bringing your attention to the bird. 7
