Sweet model posing

Well I'm going with the same series of shots of the GRBH taken recently 09/13. For full disclosure this shot is a composite of two shots to get the sharper photo overall. The photo was edited and slightly cropped with Adobe Photoshop. I promise this will be the last of the shots from this series. I doubt I would get another opportunity or set of shots like these up close. Thank you for viewing.

I've enjoyed the unusual perspective of this series - a good way to make unique images of common species and subjects. Like the other in this series it appears a bit on the dark side (at least for my tastes), and it is over sharpened.

The top down pose is interesting, and the composite works pretty well. It appears to me to be over sharpened. There may be a halo along the top of the bill but without a larger version it's hard to be sure.
