Reflections

I am not sure if this is the correct gallery to post this, but since it does have an Osprey I figured it would be ok. I took this photo out on the eastern shore of Maryland at Blackwater National Wildlife Refuge. It is just one of my favorite places to visit for Eagle and Osprey photos that is close enough to drive to.

I was using my Canon EOS Rebel T2i with a 200-500mm lens

Focal Length 209
Exposure Time 1/1,600
F Stop 5


I did crop this at the top ans right side. and up the exposure just a bit. Even though I was shooting for the Osprey and the reflection, I have to say the reflection was a bigger hit for me. Please feel free to let me know what you think.

Interesting shot. I like the composition and the simple colours. It looks a bit noisy, this could be due to the ISO used, or maybe from the crop if you took a lot off?

the compo looks ok to me, the osprey is too far away to judge. This one is, as you already mentioned, all about the reflection.

cheers, Dennis
