Recently Chas and Artie posted or published shots from Bosque where they caught a silhouette of a crane or snowgoose passing the rising or setting sun. This is a sunrise shot. I was inspired by their talent and when I saw the cranes walking through the reflection of the rising sun, I focused on the reflection as best as I could, set the aperture as small as possible, compensated down as much as possible, tried to anticipate the birds position in the reflection and prayed. Though this is not very easy, itis generations easier than trying to catch the birds flying though the sun. This is what I got, I had to burn and dodge to lighten the top of the reflection and darken the head on the left crane, then ran the saturation to about 75 to really bring out the silhouettes. I like it and hope you do also. comments welcome. I could have changed the ISO for this shot, but it slipped my mind.
