Great capture Aiden…really well timed. It’s a pity about the little bit of blown highlights on the back…but I think the shot is more important than niggles like that :D
I always think the big long legged birds look really strange in flight..like they shouldn’t actually be flying… :wink: Kinda reminds me of a Concorde a bit.
This little fella was hilarious to watch. He was hopping about like a Blackbird on speed. Hard as heck to get a shot of him when he wasn’t obscured by reeds. Plus, I was shooting with a 30D that I had on loan for the day so there was a learning curve … gotta say … VERY nice camera.
I’m trying to figure out how to select highlight areas in a demo install of Adobe Lightroom. I reckon I have detail in the RAW file for the low outs that I can bring back … but only if I can select that area like we saw in the demos on Sunday. It’s wrecking my head, trying to find it.
