Beautiful. Was this with new lens?
Misha883 Yes this was with the new lens F8, 1/1000, iso 200, lens 600 mm with fill flash at -1. I shot this using the sunny 16 rule and manual settings two clicks down in the speed (1600 to 1000) for a dark subject. The sunny 16 rule is for a bright white subjects in full sun light set the camera to ISO 200 f/stop to f8 and speed to 1/1600 sec. This is a guide to use so you don't blow out the highlights. for a darker subject you can open the lens one stop or slow the shutter down 2 clicks. I take a test shot and check the histogram to make sure I'm not losing details.
fabulous detail on this bird!!! It's a beauty and the postwork you did makes him stand out!! Fantastic work!!!
