Jennifer, thanks, 400mm lens with built in 1.4TC engaged, so at a safe distance! |

Hi Tom, The original 2 is another image, which posted here to give context, as most people will not know what this is all about. It is a very interesting if not well oragnised affair. I have loads of images of the action and was actually thinking if I could put together a panel for BPSA from them. I agree Original 2 is a much better image, but that works well in colour so I didn't think of converting it to Mono. |

Thanks Diana and Wes, I am travelling now, like the suggestions, will do it once I get home. On the way back from Mara, got some good images of the migration. So a lot of stuff to process! |

As it stands, there is dead space to the right and lower parts. I would crop a bit, but not too much as your story is of abandoned eggs, not just eggs. The blurring is fine, and I take that as a good thing, as the eggs are in focus. Maybe trying a shot at f5.6 would give a different effect, but I am a great fan of shallow depth of field, so for me this works.
Looks like you were shooting from a higher location looking down. If the nest is still there, I would suggest trying to shoot from a more 'flat' angle, to get the eggs peeping out of the nest material. Like one tries to shoot animals from eye level, whenever possible, and yes I would stick to the f2.8, or even shallower depth of field if I had a f/2 lens handy.
But all this is just my way of looking at things which tends to be a bit boring sometimes! |

Well, I didn't realise the bird was there, was shooting 30 fps to try and catch the action. When reviewing I caught this frame with the bird, must have come in for a fleeting second. Goes to proove that sometimes "spray and pray" will get you a shot which thoughtful shooting would have missed. |

Wes, sorry, I prefer the color on this one, and if you had a frame with her looking towards you, it would be the icing on the cake! |
