The dynamic movement of this hawk owl provides 1/1250 of a second of fascinating observation.
Canon 5D Mark III with the 500L f4 lens handheld at 1/1250, f10, ISO 400, +2/3 exposure compensation.
The bird was to the left of my frame due to its speed and my panning, therefore I had to crop away about 50% of the image to properly center for composition purposes - but it was worth it. With the very high pixel count of the 5D III, I have tons of resolution to work with for printing purposes.
Several small branches clonned away behind the bird, and I clonned away a partially buried prey to spare viewers a possibly disturbing sight.
Cheers,
Mike
