The September Scavenger Hunt
#29 - Fruit or Bird
Gulp! Found this on my way to The Old Dairy yesterday. A bit disturbing so I gave it some spooky lighting.
Harks back to an old TITTC piccy - up in the Outer Hebrides...
The lighting was a nightmare, getting the backgound underexposed wasn't a problem but getting the flash in the right place was really difficult! It really needed to be much further away but not having a stand with me I had to hold the flash in one hand and the camera in the other. All the time the bird was swaying back and forth in the wind (& at 17mm that means I was REALLY close to it) - and it was raining.
