Great catch. Timing was spot on. One bit of the bird got kind of blown out (something that constantly plagues me) but the overall picture is magnificent. Bravo!
@mcsiegle Thanks Mary - it's frustrating because none of the highlights are blown out on the original... it's an artefact created by the import algorythm
@vignouse That WOULD be frustrating! In my case I just haven't mastered how to balance bright cloudy sky and whatever I'm going for on earth. A lot of fiddling with settings without surety I'm heading the right direction. Eventually I'll get it.
You've put the long forgotten album Time Honoured Ghosts by Barclay James Harvest into my head, Richard, I've got it on vinyl somewhere! ... Spotify will be quicker...... Yes found it! Track called 'Jonathan'. Superb shot BTW
