I grabbed this turkey vulture from my car window while out hunting for a shot. I cloned out a strand of barbed wire.
D500, Nikon 200-500 lens, hand held, 1/2000th, f 8.0, 420mm, ISO 720, cropped to 2201 x 2574
You managed to get a great head turn from the vulture! nice light and exposure on him as well, I don’t see any artifacts from the cloning job so good job in processing also. Nice work!
Lovely head turn and eye contact from this bird, Dave. I like the post as a perch-very fitting. I do see some kind of artifact under the belly and just in front of the legs (see image below). Easily fixed.
That eye came out beautifully. Had the bird just turned it’ head?
Yeah, I probably got its attention by stopping, rolling down the window, and sticking a big telephoto out the window. It didn’t stick around very long.
