House Finch II
by Dennis Plank
Another plumage variation from the same session as the last post. We're having a cold clear day and I spent some time in the blind this morning with reasonable success. They're predicting snow tomorrow, so that might make for an interesting session as well.
7DII, Sigma 150-600 C @ 562 mm, Jobu gimbal mounted to blind window, f/8, 1/200, iso 800, aperture priority, pattern metering, fill flash at -1 2/3 EV. Processed in LR5 & CS6. Cropped to 16.2 MP before resizing. I must have accidentally turned the automatic crop proportions off because I ended up with a 1:1.4 ratio. Taken at my back yard feeding station at 10:34 AM on December 4th.
Your comments and criticisms are always appreciated.
Thanks,

Sweet!
