experimentation from today...

so i woke up at 5am today like i do every Sat and headed out to my favorite spot. when i got there, it was clear that it is going to be a very short day with very little birding. instead of packing up and going home like i wanted to do, i decided to take what i can get and do some experimentation. please let me know what you think...

What do you do when you get serious?

I'm partial to the Red Wing as I have yet to get one in a good pose, even with thousands of them around here.

i can send you some of mine because today i managed to get like 50 of them (like i said, crappy day with not a lot of variety...)

I'm digging the first two. The third and fourth are a little weird, texture-wise or something. Did you do some weird sharpening?

they all look very good to me did you use the flash on all of them ?
Rob.

Rob- i did use fill flash on all of them.

Mumbles- the 3rd one might seem weird because it is 100% crop. the 4th only add level tweaks an everything else is a result of panning with a bird doing close to 50mph.. if you are talking about the second one (the black and white) than yes, the image has been through quite lot of PP

oh cool

i guess the experimentation failed

I love the first one. Teriffic color, exposure and bg. Congrats. --Rick

Very good series.

thanks Sindri, not the best but it was all i could do on such a slow day

Nice job Snir....How do you like the Better Beamer?

i love it Dan. i looked at the red wing black bird image and it was clear that the better beamer does in fact work judging by the detail in the blacks.

Very nice, I especially love pics#3 and #4, very nicely done!
