Greenshank

Hi,
It is a long time since my last post, however::

Greenshank, Isles of Scilly, 2009.

Nikon D200
Sigma 50-500mm
ISO 400
Matrix metering
Group Dynamic focus
Ex Bias 0

Beautiful portrait and detail in the bird, a little small and would love to see it bigger, you have posted it @405 on the longest side and you can go up to 720 on the longest side , a lovely image though

Thanks Craig
Tried to post 720, on the longest side and upload failed, image size to big???

For me it needs a little more space on the left, as viewed, for the bird to look into, this might mean the addition of some canvas at the top to balance out the composition.

I would also consider re-composing, so that the Greenshank is facing towards the right. Just a thought but as I was once told, always worth considering.

All in all, an excellent portrait, which I would love to see posted at 720 along the longest side.

Very nice shot Dave



Size is 720 longest side but limited to 200k unless you host it on another site and link it

A nice shot. Good colour.

Thanks Craig

May have been my fault 720 on the longest side and when you save it for Web the size must be 200 and uder,hope that helps Dave

Thanks Craig

Nice shot Dave, saw you at the RFB at Bempton but didn't get the chance to speak.

Attractive portrait and I particularly like the colours in the image; nice work. Before you tried to up-load the image did you reduce the file size to <200 kB? This may be the reason the 720px image was rejected.

A nice image that needs to be veiwed bigger.
