No longer a newbie, moving up!
Took these in the backyard this afternoon. Comments welcome.
I like the solitude of this Turkey Vulture and the dark, ominous silhouette that resulted from him flying between me and the sunset. Oddly enough, even the slight graininess from the ISO adds something to the image for me.
300mm, 1/2000, f/5.6, ISO 800, cropped and converted to B&W in Lightroom 3
Not long afterwards, a flock of Canadian Geese flew by and were just high enough above the trees to be splattered by the fleeting sun, adding a little touch of color. Wish I had a bit faster shutter speed on this one, but I'm happy with the overall look.
300mm, 1/500, f/5.6, ISO 800, cropped in Lightroom 3
