Ebony Jewel-Wing

This is another individual that I photographed perched above the Grand River. I did not have time to adjust my exposure so the image was slightly under-exposed. K5 IIs, 300mm DA* (1/80sec at f13, ISO 800) Noise reduction, exposure, blacks and highlights tweaked in LR. cs5 included levels, Topaz Detail, and High Pass sharpening. Image was also cropped to remove some clutter at the bottom and right side of image.........................Jim
