Harrierscape

I snuck a trip to Ridgefield NWR in on Saturday when it decided to take a day's break from rain in this part of the country.  The fog didn't lift until quite late in the morning, which made for some interesting processing issues.  However, by the time I stopped to photograph a Great Blue Heron and saw this female Harrier perched in the background it wasn't much of an issue any more.  I liked the nice fall/winter feel that the trees gave to this image.

7Dii, Sigma 150-600 C @ 600 mm, beanbag on car window, f/9, 1/2000, iso 800, aperture priority, pattern metering, -1 EV (I took a couple of test frames at -1/3 and the image was a bit brighter than I liked due to the remnants of the fog).  Processed in LR & PS CC.  Cropped to 14.7 MP (I'd tried positioning the bird at the lower right 1/3 point, but didn't get it right so I decided to crop for a better composition).  I added a bit of extra blur to the bg as well.  Taken at 11:13 am on November 18th.
