Sandhill in the Fog

Gallery: AvianPosted November 27, 2013155 views6 comments

I'm headed over to the Bosque Saturday for a six day shoot. Looks like the numbers are really good this year. Keith Bauer is doing a workshop at the same time, so I'll probably run into him. I got this image last November in marginal foggy morning conditions at the crane pools. This was captured when there was a bit of a break in the fog, although it is still apparent in this. Larger image included.

I like what the fog did to the bg, Bill, while still leaving excellent detail in the Crane. Nice flight position.

Lovely shot, the fog has given it a soft artistic touch.

Nice wing position and I really like the BG with the thin clouds. Excellent IQ. Well done.
