Fall is fun

[coastalconn]

Love the cooler weather and the woods and skies seem like they are coming alive lately. I had a peregrine Falcon circle around me and land on a perfect perch. I never see them so I was pumped. Still a few Osprey kicking around and a few other recent images. Thanks for looking and comments welcome..

Great set. I have to pick #3 for it's uniqueness.

Hey Kris that's a great shot of the Vireo but I've never seen one that blue. They normally look more grayish blue with a hint of yellow. Did you happen to push the blues a little during post? It's a great shot but the color seems off.

Hats off to you on the falcon, dang that was awesome!

I don't think I did, but I will double check.. It was in a very shaded spot.. I just found out about camera standard instead of Adobe colors and the color and contrast are quite different instead of the flat lacking contrast images I used to get when I open them in LR...

I went back and looked at it and the white balance the camera picked was way too cool. It was in a very shaded spot and the camera picked a WB around 4300. I manully picked my white balance spot and I think this might be more accurate...

Now that's what I'm talking about! What a great shot of it. You don't often get those out in the clear like that.
