Setting the scene. Of course 500mm so close means I had no DOF, even f11 would not have helped hugely. But I kinda like how DOF splits up the heirachy, from first in line to last. I need to try and get the hide back as any squabbling happens I am a bit close. This shot is 2 stitched in landscape. Cloned a rogue post out on RHS. :rolleyes: This is more a reference shot but I kind of liked it.

1DIV, 500 f4, f5.6, ISO200

A shame about the OOF wing in the foreground, otherwise an excellent image.

Indeed a shame about the oof wing but apart from that a great image. Good luck sorting out the other shots. I look forward to seeing more. :wavey:

It lacks more space on the right and below as it feels a little cluttered but as you say Neil it is a great reference shot. Lovely light and perfectly exposed.
