Northern Harrier

I caught this male lifting off from the shore of the Great Salt Lake in fairly low light for flight shots. The upper background is the frozen lake and the dark debris at bottom (including what's being kicked up by the bird) is windrows of brine fly pupae casings that are carried onto shore by wind and waves.

7D, 1/2000, f/5.6, ISO 640, 500 f/4, shot from pickup window on 1/31/12, cropped to 60% of original image, small exposure adjustment in ACR, sharpened bird, small increase in contrast, no additional processing or adjustments, natural light, no bait, no decoy, not set up or called in
