Birds in Nature - images of wild birds by Richard Ditch |
Subject: Green Heron (Butorides
virescens)
Place: Phoenix, AZ, USA
Date: May 2003
Equipment: Nikon N90S, Nikkor AF-S 300/2.8 & TC20E (= 600/5.6),
tripod
Film: Fujichrome Sensia 100
Exposure: aperture priority matrix metered
Scan: Minolta Dimage; 70% of frame
Commentary: Taken at an artifical habitat on commercial
proprty, found only a few miles from our house. I originally composed
this with the heron reflected in the botom half of the frame, but
found the resulting image much too static with the top and bottom
halves almost identical. I've cropped from the bottom, eliminating
the reflected heron and blue sky, to break the static feeling.
