    Lowkey pidgeon

    Well I have hardly had a moment to really try out my 70-200mm (been packing) but here is one shot I did get that I am very please with:


    f2.8, ISO 200, 1/1600sec
    link to larger: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/252/3...06daa1f2_o.jpg

    Taken from outside the cage (so wire already lost through f2.8) and against a dark cage background - outside but well in the shade. Thus I was able to boost the blacks to get the lowkey effect


    comments and crits welcome - thanks

    There is pleasure in the pathless woods
    There is a rapture on the lonely shore
    There is society, Where none intrudes
    By the deep sea, and music in its roar
    I love not man the less, But Nature more

    Very nice detail. Looks like he's watching you out of the corner of his pidgeon eye
