Another Moorhen
Hi to all,

Here's another Moorhen from yesterday , photographed with the same difficult lighting as the last post but this time I think it's not too bad due to the side on shot , thanks for looking.

Converted in DPP / Processed in CS2 (Cropped)

Canon 1D3 , 500F4IS + 1.4T/c , Gitzo1325 , Wimberley v2
1/1000th @ F6.3 iso640 RAW

All comments welcome

Kind regards

Andy... :smile:

Excellent! The lighting works very well for the detail on the head, which is what matters most. I have found these to be most uncooperative so far. Just a thought, the bottom corners are a little unbalanced in terms of brightness - might be worth a little dodging/ burning?

Another nice one, I think it could stand a little less brightness without losing anything.

very nice lighting and colours. Would benefit from an anti-clockwise rotation?
