Hello all,
Well with a newly calibrated monitor the difference, to me any way
seems to be immense. No wonder things were going wrong.

Managed a few hours this afternoon at the local pool and caught this one.

Techs:
D2x 500 f4.5 1.4TC
1/350 iso 400 +1. EV

C&C would be welcome

Paul

Hello Paul
Colour looks dead on to me. A nice sharp image, and the morsel in the beak makes it that bit more interesting. Just a personal thing, but I would have liked a touch more room on top (for it to lift it's head in to, if you see what I mean?).
Best wishes

Looks a nigh on perfect exposure to me Paul :toast:

Agree with Phil on the comp and a lower PoV would have been great (I know sometimes you can't get lower though).

Nice job :wavey:

Thank you all for your comments, it still seems a little washed out to me on uploading,So will try with an alternative image later.

Thanks again.
