The cold, windy weather brought the birds to the feeder this morning. This guy was quite the acrobat holding onto his perch. Nikon D810, 500mm, f5.6, 1/3200 sec, iso 7200, e/c -0.7. EC isn't normally used and must have been set for the last shoot and forgotten. My post-processing skills are less than basic but did find a pre-set that added to the background. My biggest problem is adding light to otherwise dark eye areas in these bird photos...still trying to figure that out. Suggestions appreciated. Thank you!
