Birds in Nature - images of wild birds by Richard Ditch |
Subject: Mourning Dove (Zenaida
macroura)
Place: Phoenix, AZ, USA
Date: June 2003
Equipment: Nikon N90S, Nikkor AF-S 300/2.8 & TC20E (= 600/5.6),
tripod
Film: Fuji Sensia 100
Exposure: Aperture priority matrix metered
Scan: Minolta Dimage, 60% of frame
Commentary: A common bird throughout much of the US, and as a
result overlooked by many people. Here I have relied on the late day
light and the graphics of these rocks to make an interesting image.
This is another example of an image where the bird doesn't dominate
the frame, but appears as an important element in a larger
composition.
