Motif: Northern Lapwing in Flight Part 4

Mai Po, Dec-19-2004.
EOS 10D, EF500mm f/4 L IS USM, EF1.4X II, tripod, ISO200, manual, f/8, camera RAW, PS7, 36% of original.

It is one of shots taken in a ferrying sequence as Part 3 earlier. I read that they were still here on Christmas day, but today, it seems that they have all gone.

Reasons for motif:
1. Learn how the wing position of a in-flight shot is good "enough" for posting.
2. Learn to use AI Servo properly.
3. Learn why buying a 500mm lens is important
4. Learn to use highlight recovery (or highlight/shadow in PS/CS ) to "boost" shadow area.
5. How to crop to make an impression.
6. How to perform proper sharpening

Of course there are a lot more to learn, though I don't know what will be around that corner. Anyway, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone here in NS who view my postings, also thank you all for taking time to comment on them. So long as you comment, I am willing to take more and post them.

Thank you for reading and viewing. Please comment bruntly as usual.


Regards,
Griffin the Poor.
