A couple More Kingfishers

hTr · 6th of August 2007 (Mon)

I had a couple more Kingfisher shots and PP with all your input.

Thanks

These are really bright and "clean" looking captures. I really am a sucker for your shots of the "King". Razor sharp focus and a creamy bokeh really makes these captures stand out. Excellent work.

Yea the white got you (usually need -2/3) but great shots here. Get him on a overcast day and brighten the color temp and that works good.

Yep the whites are a little blown, However the Bokeh is nice, composition you should have lowered the branch into the bottom part of the frame, feels a little bit tight, would definitely prefer a bit more head room. But overall great images.
