 Arctic Terns, Churchill, MB, Canada This seemed appropriate for the Motif and I thought I would show two shots for comparison sake. The above shot was made using flash as the main source of light, underexposing the background (ambient) by two stops. I chose to do this in order to darken the background and increase subject separation from it, as well as to provide better illumination of the birds particularly on the heads and eyes. The increased aperture also allowed me to gain enough DOF to ensure everything was in focus. The settings for the image were: EOS 1D, EF 600/4 IS, 1/500 @ f11, ISO 200, Flash as main light @ -1/3 The image below is for comparison purposes and was shot with available ambient light using fill flash. Notice how much lighter the background looks.  The settings for the second image were: EOS 1D, EF 600/4 IS, 1/500 @ f5.6, ISO 200, Fill Flash @ -1 2/3 Comments welcomed! Greg Downing
